Right out of the gate, Mosaic® hops catapulted into the upper echelon of high-demand aroma hops. Now it's one of those hop varieties that even casual craft beer drinkers are familiar with. A go-to addition for modern West Coast IPAs and an almost ubiquitous choice for Hazy IPAs. Not only does Mosaic® crush it as a standalone in single-hop beers, but it's an addition that just seems to complement and enhance any hop you pair it with. Even with a high alpha content, the intense aroma of fresh pine, mango, blueberry and citrus are the main event when you brew with Mosaic® hops. A reliable workhorse for NEIPAs, Pale Ales, IPAs, and Hoppy Lagers, but this stunning varietal will be a welcome addition in just about any style you brew.
