Mosaic®
MOS

United States

Derived from Simcoe®, Mosaic® was developed and released by the Hop Breeding Company in 2012. This US hop features an enticing balance of floral, tropical, fruity and earthy flavors. A high alpha acid content makes Mosaic® a great dual-purpose hop but it’s strength lies in its smoothness and distinctive aroma that work particularly well in pale ales and IPAs.

Typical Aroma Profile

 

Mosaic® offers a complex fruity aroma (pineapple, mango, passion fruit) combined with a freshness from lime and tangerine. Cassis as well as onions give the hop a special note.

*Alpha acids are determined by conductometric titration (EBC 7.4) in Europe, by spectrophotometry (ASBC Hops-6) in the USA. Oil composition is determined by gas chromatography (ASBC Hops-17, EBC 7.12).

All values represent the medium range of the last 4 years. Be aware that specifically the alpha and oil values can vary in a broad range depending on the relevant crop year.
