Flavor & Aroma Profile
Mosaic offers an exceptionally layered aroma featuring blueberry, mango, passion fruit, pineapple, citrus, peach, and tangerine, supported by notes of pine, floral blossoms, and light earthiness. Whirlpool and dry hop additions maximize its juicy tropical fruit character while preserving its signature berry notes. Its balanced bitterness and complex aroma make Mosaic an excellent single hop variety or a key component in fruit forward hop combinations.
Brewing Applications
Mosaic excels in Hazy IPA, New England IPA, American IPA, Pale Ale, Double IPA, Session IPA, and American Wheat Ale. It pairs exceptionally well with Citra®, Simcoe®, Amarillo®, Galaxy™, Idaho 7®, and Centennial, creating layered flavors of tropical fruit, citrus, berry, and resin.
Recommended Hop Substitutes
If Mosaic is unavailable, consider:
- Citra®: Similar tropical fruit intensity with more lime and citrus.
- Galaxy™: Passion fruit and peach-forward with bold tropical character.
- Idaho 7®: Tropical fruit with apricot, citrus, and pine.
- El Dorado®: Sweet tropical fruit, pear, and candy-like notes.
- Simcoe®: Adds pine and passion fruit with a slightly more resinous profile.
Lineage & History
Mosaic was developed by the Hop Breeding Company (HBC) from a cross between Simcoe® and the experimental Nugget-derived male variety YCR 14. Bred to combine outstanding aroma intensity with exceptional brewing versatility, Mosaic® inherited tropical fruit characteristics from its unique parentage while developing its own signature blend of berry, citrus, and stone fruit flavors. Since its release in 2012, it has become one of Yakima Chief Hops' flagship varieties and is widely regarded as one of the defining hops of the modern craft beer era.

Mosaic for the win!
"I love mosaic! I used this hops for a hoppy hefeweizen as a dry hop, a Russian Imperial Stout in the boil, and New England IPA for all of the above! Time for another #"
Great prices and shipping time!
"I ordered a pound of Mosaic hop pellets after trying an IPA that used Mosaic only. I have purchased hops from Label Peelers before and decided to order from them again since my first experience was excellent. Well I can say they didn't let me down. Prices were excellent, shipping is fair but very fast! Now I cannot wait to use these hops in my next brew day! The hops arrived without any damage to the bag. Packaging was excellent! Thank you Label Peelers!"

Customer Oriented
"I bought hops in the hopes of getting it in time for a brew session. Owner/operator contacted me directly and reworked shipping details and I got the hops just in time...and got a refund as shipping costs changed. Will be coming back here for supplies!"
Great hops, great service
"Mosaic hops are one of my favorite hops for their versatility and everything they add to a nice pale ale or IPA. What I am really impressed with is the service provided by Label Peelers; everything shipped the same day I ordered and it arrived in less than 2 days with standard shipping. Overall, a fantastic experience!"
Great price on a great hop.
"Difficult to find hop at an almost ridiculous price - can't beat that. Working up brewing plans to use up what is now as stash of Mosaic. Keep it up Label Peelers! I'll be back for more."
