Cloudy With a Chance of Dobis
Cellarmaker Brewing Co.

 

Pours a hazy light orange with fine, soft head and nice lacing.

Smell is juicy and crisp with notes of grapefruit, passionfruit and pineapple with some spicy and peppery hints.

Taste is juicy and intense, but still crisp. Huge notes of passionfruit backed by grapefruit, orange juice and pineapple with some spicy and peppery hints and a moderate bitterness.

Mouthfeel is medium, soft, pillowy and well carbonated.

Overall, a fantastic IPA, best of both coasts.

The feel reminds me of what the Trillium top dogs feel like, which is amazing. Not sure how they did it, but this single hop beer offers a lot of surprises while being cohesive. Tons of candied fruit flavor.

Pale orange haze. Nose is juicy mango and pineapple. Taste is pineapple gummies, fresh mango slices, and orange pith. Thin body. Very little bitterness. Good, not remarkable.

Can poured into a Mountain Rambler Brewery pint glass

A: Pours hazy peachy golden amber with a frothy off whitehead that settles to a light layer and laces nicely.

S: Juicy tropical and stone fruit, ripe citrus, faintly grassy, biscuity malt, and caramel sweetness.

T: Lively tropical and stone fruit, peach, mango, apricot, pineapple juice, guava, and a touch of passion fruit, plenty of citrus, big orange plus a little lemon lime, slight grassy herbal undertones, biscuity malt, and caramel sweetness.

M: Medium body, moderately lively carbonation, soft on the palate.

O: I'm always amazed at how Cellarmaker can make a 100% Citra beer taste so different from everybody else's 100% Citra beers. Really good stuff.

Hazy as advertised. Good head production and retention; very nice lacing. Body is a lemon yellow hue.

Wonderfully bright and hoppy aroma! Citrus fruit, bright herbs, and a bit of peppery dankness.

Incredibly juicy on the palate for a beer that clocks in at a modest 6.8% ABV. Similarly, very, very smooth and creamy, up there with the masters of the style. Tropical fruit notes are the story here, with mango, melon, pineapple, and papaya leading the way. Mandarin orange and bright herbs round out the profile. Very low perceived bitterness, and low dankness (which could be a function of age).

It poured a soft golden haze topped with a 2 inch foamy head that clung to the glass leaving waves of lacing. The aroma was heavily pineapple and passionfruit, and the taste followed suit. All of the juice explosion that the aroma promised was in the taste. Big hits of pineapple and passionfruit with minimal bitterness on the finish, but a dry enough finish to keep you wanting more. Medium bodied and soft as can be. A very well done hazy IPA that shows what Citra can do.

Can from lupulo Santa Cruz.
3/15/21 can date. That’s only like 5 days ago!
OJ appearance. Creamy fluffy head with forever retention.
Orange pineapple nose.
Pineapple, orange, cream, milk taste.
Fairly full and creamy.
Overall: I’m assuming this is a citra ipa with the pineapple dobis theme. This is really good. Also 6.8% abv is undetectable.

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, it's cloudy. Super soft mouthfeel. Slightly acidic, more than bitter. Melon, guava, juicy goodness. Enjoyed this when I had it on tap at the brewery.

4 day old growler into a shaker pint on Tahoe cabin trip. What a GREAT Citra nose! Orange, papaya, pineapple, nectarine and mango.
Wish the taste could match it, but not quite as dynamic, lots of astringency with mild bitterness. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, full on the tongue.

 

 

 

Cloudy, rustic orange color with very little head. Smell dank with citrus. A bit of a spritz on the tongue. Tart citrus and pineapple flavors with a hint of pine. Some hops in the beginning, but you get more on the finish.
