Murky. Muddy brass colour. Spotty head. Aroma is herbal and floral with some bread and pomelo. Taste is slightly herbal and sour. Light bitterness.
Can in Tampere. Hazy barley brown. Floral and herbal with lager yeast. Slightly floury with notes of sourness, floral aroma. Refreshing and light. Not bad for a Finnish lager.
500 ml can. Unclear pale amber, foamy head. Sourdough, grass, tangerine, lemon. Dry hoppy bitterness with some sourness. Light to medium bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, dry finish. Decent.
From Beer52 had at home in June 2020 330ml can, for a "Larger" it was nice.
8/6/2020. Sample from the SHIG, cheers! Pours clear orange gold with a small bubbly white head. Aroma of sweet and ripe tropical fruits, grains, peach, touch of herb and pine. Medium plus sweetness and light bitterness. Moderate body, sticky texture, soft carbonation. Sweet, fruity finish. Quite decent, if a little too sweet.
Can: Poured a hazy burnt orange with fluffy white head. Aroma is mosaic as soon as top was popped, grain undertones. Taste is nice mosaic hops, fruity, but strong grain backbone.
Bottle from Prisma in Kovoula.
Nice but short lasting white head. Clear golden color. Nice tropical hop aroma but in medium intencity. Citrus taste.
March 15, 2018 - with blankboy, gregclow, jercraigs & mabel - 500ml can. Slightly hazy gold, tiny bubbles and a big and lasting fluffy whit e head. Woah - what is that aroma? Smells like lemon drops over fresh grain and shelled peas; vinyl? clover? Taste is pretty standard heather 'n honey, mild alcohol - meh. Light body, weak carbonation, quick slightly tingly finish - mehh.
330ml can. Aroma of minerals, lemon shavings, slightly nutty pale malt. Mellow citrus rind hops, crackers and biscotti. Bit of toasty yeast. Dusted orange with a low white head leaving trails of lace. Reasonable.
Okay øl, med lidt eftersmag af humle
Okay frisk
33cl bottle at home (5 IV 2020), as Pyynikin Mosaic Lager. Hazy and unclear orange to dark golden brew with frothy white yet swiftly diminishing head. A nice appearance with a fresh nose. The flavours are floral with lingering herbs tones. There is some lemon grass in there as well. It also make me think of hyacinth flowers and ginger. The taste is somewhat flatter than expected. The onset is quite malty, with a wheat and quenching mouthfeel. There are some hints of black pepper, which are enjoyable. All in all, the lager body is rather dull. The hops leave silky soft presence, but the ending is dry and not memorable. The taste has grains, bread and straw, even hay. Nothing bad, though.
A decent lager with hoppiness
Can from Beer52. BB Sept 2020; Drank Jan 2020 - Clear yellow. Good frothy white head. Bready malty, grainy, straw. Lemon citrus. Floral and grassy hoppy. Lightly spicy, peppery. Sweet grainy malty citrus fruity floral hoppy and lightly spicy. Easy drinking. (2020-01)

(Pyynikin Mosaic Lager) Bottle 330ml from Lidl, ABV 4.7%
Nice hoppy aroma, good bitterness on the taste with flavours of citrus, biscuit malts, very refreshing. Nice one.
Nice lime aromas. Some biscuit maltiness with lots more citrus. Sadly though a bit thin on the mouthfeel which lets it down.
Hoppy, flavourful lager, thats full of sharp, citrusy hops, light biscuit malt and a balanced, dry and bitter finish.
[33cl can from Beer52.] A slightly hazy straw coloured pour with a loose cream head; grapefruit aroma; traditional lager taste, with a sweetish grainy body and a fresh grassy bitterness; and a touch of lemony citrus to finish. Interesting and different.
Crisp, sharp, refreshing, lots of pale malt, some grapefruit, pale malt stweetness, subtle tangerine.
Thinning off white head on an unclear dark golden body.
Fruity aroma.
Medium bodied, soft on the palate with a tingle on the back.
Hoppy tasting with pith, grapefruit, peach & some unusual weird taste - cleanser?
Can, pours pale gold with a light haze. Aroma is light malt, lemony, grassy, floral hop. Light bodied, airy texture, soft carbonation. Nicely quaffable.
Vrij dun spul, wat lichte meloen en citrus op wat tarwe en mout, droog, mineraalwater en wat kalkachtige tonen, bittertje, licht hoppig, ok
Pours clear pale golden with a quickly thinning, frothy, white head. Aroma of apple peel, mandarin, young pear, grapefruit, spruce, yeast. Taste is light fruity sweet, notes of apple & pear, bitter grapefruit & pine & some spices, yeasty with bready malts underneath. Dry, earthy, piney hoppy finish, more yeast & unripe fruit. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Smooth drinkable hoppy Lager.
330ml can at home on 22nd Nov 2019. Slight haze to the golden body, smooth white foam blanket on top. Mosaic hops do their stuff and give off a citrusy lemon like aroma and taste. Does what it says on the can.
Hazy light golden, small head. Aroma is hops, citrus, fruit, sweet, taste is the same, light bitter, nice
Can. Pours a syrupy gold, light cloudiness, no head. Simple, quick and dry finish. Light floral/grassy hop nose. Light citrus fruits. A pale lager done riiiiight.
