Mosaic®(HBC 369)

Hop Description

Arguably the beer world’s hottest hop since it crashed onto the scene in 2012, Mosaic®’s name aptly evokes its complex collection of flavors. Mango, blueberry, fruit punch, bubble gum, pine needles, and more notes gush from this aroma variety, a result of crossing Simcoe® with a Nugget-descended male.
