mosaic pale ale
« on: June 23, 2013, 03:47:40 pm »
i just bottled my first go at it with mosaic.

it smells really nice and has a good flavor. but i'm not getting the blueberry some talk about(and not worried i'm not). i feel like it's more like slight watermelon or cherry. i bittered with some centennial and mixed all the late mosaic with a little amarillo. either i'm having a stroke or i figured out how to make a beer taste like watermelon/cherry. 

i like it and am very interested to see how it progresses with bottle conditioning.

anybody else have similar mosaic flavors/notes?
