 Thanks for joining me for this episode of brutal battle beer break and it's a new year. So new year means new beer And here's a new beer This one I'm going to be trying is called mosaic eruption IPA It's by Mazzama brewing and they're out of Corvallis, Oregon Which is where Emily bowling who gave me this beer lives. So very close to her house And it's 6% alcohol by buying very interested to try this typically Chicago area and all of West Coast doing amazing IPA's So hoping this is also an amazing IPA plus love mosaic hops Nope, and then we get that Okay, but I'm gonna try it anyway Even though it exploded all over the place and disclaimer. I did not shake it up or anything. So That's just what happened Smells like an IPA. Oh I can show you Very orange a little bit hazy to it But I mean looks like a you know deep orange paleo or IPA It's a little bit of a honey character in the nose Decent amount of citrus as well, but it's more of like an orange citrus peel on there a little bit of grapefruit aspect to it but Lot of honey, which leaves me to believe maybe the the hops have died down a little bit I don't think there's a I didn't see a date code on it No, I mean there's something on there, but it's not anything you can actually decipher I'm thinking this one might be a kind of on the olden potentially. I don't know, but I mean it's not much there There's straw. Hey notes. There's that honey aspect There's a little bit of a hop aspect a little bit of that kind of orange peel I'm not getting any of that grapefruit. I was talking about and don't really taste like mosaic hops to me Yeah, I can see a little bit where the mosaic was I'm gonna assume. This is an old can I'd like to be able to get a hold of something like really fresh Problem is when you don't date code it so you can easily tell what it is that consumer that is then You end up with a problem where you get beer that's old So, you know, I don't know what to say not a huge fan of this. It's not bad It's drinkable. You get a little bit of the kind of die-down hop character, but I Mean whatever New year new year new brew Kind of a dud but stay tuned for the next episode and then we'll see what happens Thank you everyone for checking this out and go ahead and get yourself an awesome beer
