Some of my buddies coined the phrase “having a Philip moment.” A couple years ago, we were planning a get-together at my place, and I’d asked everyone to bring a beer to share. But, I gave one stipulation: it had to be something they’d never tried before.

Everyone brought tasty choices, but the “Philip moment” occurred when my friend Steve called me out for what I brought. “You didn’t even bring the regular version of Toppling Goliath’s most famous juicebomb — nooooo, you had to pull a Philip and show us all up with the Mosaic Dry Hop Pseudo Sue that’s even harder to find!”

I didn’t mean to outshine everyone, but how could I possibly miss my chance to share one of the Top 10 Highest Rated Pale Ales in the World on Untappd? No juicy hop fan in their right mind could pass it up!

The brewers load Mosaic Dry Hop Pseudo Sue with zesty citrus and tropical fruit flavor, and it seduces with aromas of orange-mango on the nose. On the tongue, it’s a hop smoothie with bright notes of grapefruit dankness, blueberry bubblegum, ripe papaya, and a hint of pine. It’s everything Pseudo Sue is, but juiced up to all-new heights.

Haters gonna hate, right? But, these buddies aren’t real haters. Sure, they might be a little envious when I bring a gem like Mosaic Dry Hop Sue to the party. Until all that envy turns to gratitude as soon as they get a taste!
