Clear golden with a medium to large off white head. Aroma had plenty of citric hops, pine and grapefruits. Flavour was fairly dry with grapefruits, pine and lemons. Finished dry and slightly bittter.

On tap. Pours with a clear golden body and a small white head. Aroma is faded tropical fruit, hay and grass. Taste is grassy/bitter, soggy malt, and wet dog. Blah. Dry and lively bubbles. I was really looking forward to this one, but was a bit disappointed.

Tap at churchills! Clear gold, white head. Pale malt and lots of citrus hops on the nose. Flavor is smooth with pale bready malts, citrus hops. Nice.

Saw it as Citra Session. Amber beer with a cream colored head. Big citrus aroma. Grapefruit and tropical fruit flavor with pine and backing malts. Medium bodied. Nice bitterness. Citrus and light tropical fruit lingers with light pine.

Draft. Pours a copper toned body with a white head and light head retention. Citrus and grapefruit rinds with a lighter pine and grass tone. Very fresh and hoppy. Loads of flavor no malt to speak of, a big bag of grass and a resinous finish. Great.

Hazy golden color with a medium sized, white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of strong citra, citrus, tropical fruits, melon, pine, and floral hops. Taste of tropical fruits, citrus, toasted malts, light sweetness, and a bitter hoppy finish.

Draught at Thrash Zone. Copper color with no head. Nice citrus aroma, grassy—nice hops. Smooth, hoppy flavor with low malts. Very drinkable but not all that memorable. A decent session beer.

Tap at green flash. Pours a lightly hazy golden with a creamy white head. Aroma of mango and mixed citrus. Flavor of a nice dry bready ale with mango and citrus hop notes.

Draft at Stone. Clear golden pour, white head. Citrus, light tropical notes, and a malt background. Drinkable, and fairly tasty, but not overly complex. Still enjoyable.

Tap at RnH: Pours a hazy light golden with a thin white head. Bright clean citra aroma. Slightly biscuity background with a melon like note from the citra. Crisp light body. Firm biscuity background with a nice smooth mild resiny and fruity hoppiness. Very dry throughout. A nice session.
