Mosaic®

SKU: HMOS0044

Tropically pungent and in demand for IPAs, saisons, and more.

Breeding/Development: USA. Known as HBC 369 until its release in 2012, Mosaic® is a variety from the Hop Breeding Company, LLC. It is a daughter of Simcoe and a Nugget-derived male.

Brewing Application: Mosaic® is often compared to Citra, with which it shares a respectable alpha content but a highly-desired oil profile that makes it most commonly used for flavour and aroma. Its exotic, fruit-laden bouquet lends itself well to American-style IPAs, saisons, wheats, and Brettanomyces-fermented beers.

Sensory: Complex and pronounced. Strong impressions of citrus oil, balsam pine, blueberry, peach and tropical fruit (especially mango, but also shades of lime and mandarin orange).
