Mosaic IPA

Tap to rate

A single-hop IPA built entirely on Mosaic. The nose leads with ripe blueberry and mango, with tangerine and a resinous pine note behind them. A light caramel malt base gives the fruit something to sit on without pushing back, and the bitterness is firm and clean rather than harsh. Medium-bodied, with the berry character holding through to a dry finish.

◌ Aroma

Entry shows immediate fruit and herbal character, with berry notes carrying through the mid-palate alongside a clean, firm bitterness.

Serve at 8–11°C

Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.

Drink fresh. Session IPAs are brewed to be consumed young — the hops are at their best now.
