Citra Mosaic Hazy Hoppy Pale: Sparking Innovation at Hobsons Brewery
At Hobsons Brewery, our bread and butter has always been our core cask range—crafted with passion and steeped in tradition. But innovation has never been far from our hearts, and the introduction of Citra Mosaic Hazy Hoppy Pale into our keg range marks an exciting new chapter. This beer has not only earned its place as a top-quality session ale but has also catalysed a broader evolution of our keg offerings, helping us appeal to a wider demographic while remaining true to our roots.
About the Beer
Citra Mosaic is a hazy, hoppy pale ale bursting with vibrant flavours and aromas. It’s brewed with two iconic hop varieties that perfectly complement each other:
-
Citra Hops: Known for their strong citrus aroma, these hops deliver tantalising notes of peach, apricot, passion fruit, lemon, and melon.
-
Mosaic Hops: Renowned for their tropical and blueberry aromas, these hops add layers of citrus and grassy characteristics that beautifully enhance the Citra profile.
The result? A hazy, hoppy pale ale with a light body, mellow bitterness, a full on citrusy hop character. Unfiltered to maximise its bold hop flavour, this ale pours with an enticing haze that’s as inviting as its taste.
By name and by nature, Citra Mosaic: crisp and quaffable, another sip awaits.
Perfect Pairings
Citra Mosaic Hazy Hoppy Pale is a natural companion for grilled meats. Whether it’s a sizzling barbecue or a juicy steak, the beer’s bright citrus notes and balanced bitterness cut through the richness, elevating every bite.
A Journey of Growth
This beer’s journey began in 2019 as a collaborative brew with Brew By Numbers. Back then, it was known simply as Mosaic and Citra, but its potential was undeniable. Fast forward to today, and it has become a staple of our core keg range, bringing vibrant energy and a fresh perspective to our offerings.
The success of Citra Mosaic Hazy Hoppy Pale has sparked a broader transformation at Hobsons. By expanding our keg range with innovative, approachable beers like this one, we’re reaching new audiences without compromising the quality and heritage that define our cask range. This balance allows us to cater to both traditional ale lovers and modern craft beer enthusiasts.
Looking Ahead
Citra Mosaic is more than just a beer; it’s a symbol of our commitment to growth and innovation. As we continue to develop our keg range, we’re excited to explore new flavours and styles that connect with diverse palates while ensuring our core cask offerings remain the cornerstone of what we do.
So, the next time you’re at the pub, why not give Citra Mosaic Hazy Hoppy Pale a try? You’ll not only be enjoying a delicious beer but also a taste of Hobsons’ forward-thinking approach to brewing.
