COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
News of any new hop coming from the Yakima Valley perks the ears of IPA brewers everywhere, but, with Citra, things were different. The buzz was bigger. As Citra’s wave rolled across the land from the west coast we waited... and waited. Finally it crested, and a sample crashed into our pilot system. After brewing with it all the buzz made sense. Comments ranged from "Well that changes the game" to "It’s so good it feels like we’re cheating." Today we procure as much as Citra as we can to bring you as much of this IPA as our little brewery can muster. All hail Citra!

Worldly (2) - Thornhill, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 13, 2020 does not count
UPDATED: NOV 13, 2020 This a wonderful IPA that I will come back to regularly. It is not heavily, but enough to keep me satisfied as a session brew. A wonderful creation that I will enjoy for years to come.

UPDATED: DEC 9, 2019 Citrusy and aromatic, pours cloudy with a frothy head that settled down quickly but persisted throughout. Notes of Grapefruit and an aggressive hoppy finish. A juicy well balanced beer.

UPDATED: DEC 22, 2018 Pours a large amount of frothy white head and has a hazy golden amber appearance. Thick patchy lacing. Aromas are quite citrusy and hoppy. Flavours are very citrusy, quite hoppy. Some fairly strong notes of grapefruit as well as yeasty notes. Pretty sweet in the finish as well bitter, balances quite well. Some sediments are visible. Tingling sensation. A bit tarty on the palate. Medium bodied mouthfeel. Pretty good and at just the right ibu's, not being overly hoppy bitter.
