Hello beer lovers and welcome to another edition of the
NorCal Beer Blog's brew review.
Tonight’s featured beer is Green Flash Brewing Company Hop
Odyssey Mosaic Session IPA.
From the Green Flash Brewing Company website: “The
first beer of our 2015 Hop Odyssey Series features Mosaic hops. This bold hop
has notable characteristics from its parentage Simcoe and Nugget hops, but
Mosaic creates a unique and complex floral, tropical, fruity blend with earthy
characteristics. Mosaic also imparts blueberry and other dark berry notes to
the beer.”
Let’s get started!
Appearance: Pours
clear orange with a nice off-white head and soapy lacing.
Aroma: Citrus,
tropical and pine hops scents with bready malts.
Taste: Citrus is
way up front with tropical and fruity hop notes balanced well with a solid grainy
malt foundation.
Overall: As a big
fan of the Mosaic hop I was excited to try Green Flash Brewing Company Hop
Odyssey Mosaic Session IPA. This 4.5%
ABV offering did not disappoint.
Delicious!
Cheers!
Mark Harvey
