Mosaic® HBC 369 is one of the most celebrated hops in modern craft brewing, renowned for its exceptional complexity, versatility, and bold flavour expression. Developed by the Hop Breeding Company and released in 2012, it combines high alpha acids with abundant essential oils, making it equally effective for bittering, flavour, and aroma applications.
Born from the lineage of Simcoe® and a Nugget-derived male, Mosaic® delivers a remarkably diverse spectrum of aromas and flavours. Its name reflects this complexity, offering an intricate blend of juicy berry fruit, vibrant citrus, subtle tropical notes, and underlying woody and herbal characteristics.
The depth and balance of Mosaic® make it an outstanding choice for single-hop beers, where its full range of flavours can be showcased. At the same time, it blends effortlessly with other varieties, adding layers of fruit, aroma, and complexity to create dynamic hop-forward profiles.
With its combination of robust bittering potential and rich aromatic character, Mosaic® has become a cornerstone ingredient in countless pale ales, IPAs, hazy styles, and modern craft beers around the world.
