We brewed a fresh, tropical ale for what should the warmest Dutch months of the year. The malt base contains a bit of wheat malt which results in the pleasant, soft mouth feel of the Mosaic Pale Ale. We aimed to make it a beer as flowery as its label and picked Mosaic and Amarillo hops for the boil. Not a lot, just enough to provide a mild bitterness to support the modest alcohol percentage (5.2%).
We reached for the Mosaic and Amarillo again for the dryhop. Result: a joyful bouquet of citrus and other fruits. Orange mostly, some passion fruit and more. There is a herbal touch here too. All in all, plenty of aroma, yet the Mosaic Pale Ale goes down refreshingly easy. Great no matter the weather, perfect in the heat.
