Flavor is similar but still distinct, Citra, is fresh hop forward with the citrus finish little malt and not much bite, the Mosaic, is again hop up front but a little more floral with a decent bite finish. Both great beers, Citra 3.9 Mosaic 4.0
ACHops (1989) - Seattle, Washington, USA - OCT 4, 2016On tap @ UBG. The original "orange label" Cowiche Canyon, I don’t think this is being bottled anymore. Pours slightly hazy medium orange golden with thin lacy white head. Aroma is fresh grassy vegetal hops, light citrus on the back. Taste is clean lightly sweet malt, super crisp fresh hops - juicy citrus notes are much stronger here with loads of those same cut greenery notes. Not unpleasant at all, but kinda dominant. Solid beer but clearly inferior to OG Citra/Simcoe Cowiche.

3fourths (9493) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - OCT 17, 2015Bottle. Mostly clear honey-gold with a decently sized white head. Aroma is hoppy and lightly malty giving the impression of grass, orange, apricot, grapefruit, faint pine, toasted grain, wet hay. Medium bodied, moderately sweet , juicy and slightly oily with a plump cushion of carbonation. Pretty nice orange-grapefruit-apricot effect in the nose with good flavor balance.
Capa (4059) - JAPAN - OCT 17, 2015Clear orange with a tall white head. Aroma is like slightly dank pot, lemon, and light sweet malt. Comes across fresh and inviting but also a bit off-putting at the same time. Medium body with good carbonation. Flavor is bright citrus and lemon, spunky weed, light sweet bread. Bright hop bitterness rounds the finish out. It tastes very fresh and is quite a nice pale, the strong weed notes put me off a little, however.
