Dark honey coloured and partly transparent is this double dry hopped single hop American brew. Nice aromas of pineapple, bubblegum, papaya and pine. In the mouth is tangy, not particularly thick feeling, full bodied and a lingering finish. It's not as fruity as on the nose, leaning alot more into Mosaics pine-like tendancies. The soft tropical flavours are nice, like papaya but I'd prefer them more forward, perhaps they will be as this beer warms and breathes. I'm pleased to say the pineapple increases as does the over all rounded flavour. Less pine more tropical tang. Its still pine heavy and bitter, compared to a sweet creamy Polly's but this is an American after all. This is the risk and nature of single hop brews, lacking in depth and variation. In these brews you need to go saturated and this beer definitely benefits from the DDH, but I'd say TDH would be better. There is enough flavour to cover the 8% ABV as I'd expect from The Veil. On reflection it is a good single hop Mosaic showcase. Strong, flavourful tang with classic USA carbonation and pine.
