Tasting Notes
I expected the Mosaic Zero to be somewhat of a hoppy lager but there wasn’t much nose to it at all. Some citrusy mosaic notes but not much to write home about. It´s got a decent head but on the lighter side.
The body of the beer is very watery. I had kind of thought it would just taste like a non alcoholic malt beverage, which it is, but like a macro lager with alcohol removed. That’s just the initial taste, after that the hops shine through. If I would consider it a pleasant taste, I’m not sure. But it surely lingers in your mouth.
There’s some bitterness to it as well. It doesn’t really take my mind to a lager beer though. It’s surprisingly complex for a lager and although I’m enjoying the different tastes that appear at different times, I’m not sure if I would consider it well-executed.
Eventually, the beer grew on me. It was nice to drink it while watching tv and sometimes i didn’t even think about it being a nonalcoholic craft beer. It is not as good as the More Brewing Lager, but still alright. It is also readily available in Finland at many supermarkets and at a cheaper price than most other alcohol free craft beers.
Medium carbonation that makes the body feel a bit thicker. Some sweetness to it as well.

Mosaic Zero Rating
This Finnish non-alcoholic craft beer is drinkable but it´s not a very good beer. It kind of worked while watching TV and having a few sips but not sure if I would order it at an alcohol free bar. It´s a bit all over the place while still not being too interesting. It is quite affordable though compared to other Finnish NA craft beers to if you just wanna kick back a few beers watching TV it´s not a terrible choice. It´s also a very low alcohol beer at only 0.2% which is lower than most NA craft beers.
