Notes

Finished at 1.008 (7.74% ABV)
Bottled 3/18
111g Dextrose
Very clean and thin body. Good citrusy smell. Lemon and candy fruit taste.
Next time mash higher, me thinks.

Update: 4/30 - Got Runner up BOS at local tasting. Lots of compliments and perfect for summer. Easy drinking and very little alcohol warmth for such a high ABV beer.

Personally, I doubt I will make it again. Decided the nondescript sweet nature of mosaic is not my thing haha. Azacca seems lost in the mix. Decent fruity nose and taste, just nothing pops in my mind.

Also planning on retiring Warrior from my bittering selection. Find it much harsher than Magnum, even when used as a FWH.
