BBBrighttt w/ Citra was created to be an intense yet elegant showcase for one of our favorite hops - CITRA! It builds upon the base beer resulting in an amplified flavor profile as a function of additional kettle and dry hopping from the base recipe. It is an intense and fruity concoction that tastes much like fresh squeezed orange juice. We find it to be tremendously drinkable in spite of its stature, and we believe it is the perfect beer for those in search of intense flavor and supreme refreshment. It's everything a Double IPA should be! Enjoy!

Love the label. 16oz can into Night Shift stemware.

This one is a little more pale that I'm used to. Nose is Sunkist soda, orange tic-tac, orange gummies and resin and clementines. There's a mellow aroma of that unmistakable Treehouse dankness though. Beer opens orange and clementine juice. Some cane sugar and overripe pineapple sweetness also. There's not really any complexity or layers to this one. It's just straight alcoholic orange juice. A fantastic showcase of the citra hop though. Body is medium with moderate to ample carbonation. Prickly and with some sharp edges on the palate but this one smooths out quickly going down. Juicy finish and aftertaste.

Easily the best of the bright series though I'm definitely partial to the Citra hop profile. Worth trying.

A really nice DIPA, especially if you prefer a lighter bodied variety. Nice appearance, more yellow than orange and hazy. Head vanished pretty quickly. Got a nice hit of grapefruit in the smell, with lots of other fruit flavors as well. Quite sweet, but with some nice hoppiness too. This beer went down very smooth, but I would say was less creamy and rich than some other Tree House DIPAs. Still an excellent beer overall, especially for a warmer day!

Canned 2/26 Poured 3/10 into a stemless teku. Came out the gate a little zesty, not as much citra as one to be expected but after a few minutes of warming up the bouquet of citrus and tropical fruit came alive. Had the feel of a milkshake up a without the lactose. Very creamy and smooth. Even with its very balanced citra bill, I may even like to see it have even more. Soft beer that can get a lot of mileage of drinkability in spring and summer.

Poured from a 16oz can dated 2/26/20 into a Treehouse Luigi glass.

Overall an outstanding NEIPA. Looks like a glass of slightly carbonated orange juice. A little more “calm” than the average hazy produced by Treehouse. Poured a finger and a half of bright white head, very fluffy. Reduced to nothing shortly leaving behind little lacing. More lacing to trail as it warmed. Nose is full of tropical fruits and maybe a slight peachy scent. Taste is great. Citra on full display, although I did dock some points because it was a bit more bitter than I’m used to for the style. Typical Treehouse mouthfeel, creamy carbonation. Overall, a very good beer showcasing the Citra hop!
