Unmapped Cosmic Tiara Pale Ale

Unmapped Cosmic Tiara Pale Ale.

5% ABV, 48 IBU. Unmapped Brewing, Minnetonka, MN.


I didn’t get it at first, but the name of this beer is an anagram of the hops used. That classic duo, Citra and Mosaic. Can’t miss, right?

Mostly clear, with a slight chill haze, bright golden hue, large white head that settles quick. 

In the nose: bold citrus notes, orange, grapefruit, lime. Beautifully expressive.

In the mouth: nice dose of bitterness up front, grapefruit clings to the palate. Light bodied, crisp, clean, exceptionally refreshing. Hop bitterness hangs in for the long haul. Long, wonderfully bitter finish. There will probably be some who may take issue with the after taste, but not this Hop-head. I do enjoy a good pale ale and this is certainly one.

Delicious and delightfully downable. I’ll be back for more. 

Some say its an anagram for Citra & Mosaic. Others say its the beer of choice for interstellar royalty. We just think its a delicious sessionable pale ale! 

Cosmic Tiara is a crushable new addition to our year-round beer lineup. Subtle malt notes pair with a cascade of juicy and citrus fruit flavors that derive from healthy helpings of Citra and Mosaic hops.

Get ready to blast off- and don't forget the headgear!
