The names says it all. Our new pale ale is hopped solely with Citra Hops. Traditionalists used to pale ales full of Cascades and Centennials meet the bold, exotic tropical character of Citra. Bridging the gap between the classic American Pale Ale its aroma is backed by an uncannily soft malt backbone yielded from NYS Pale, Munich and White Wheat Malts. The true distinguishing flavor comes from pound after pound of Citra Hops producing tones of strong citrus, grapefruit, melon, lime, and passion fruit. The end product is a sessionable Pale Ale that is truly refreshing.

On tap at Charlie's in Rochester, NY.
This one pours a slightly hazy golden orange- it looks really nice. There's a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells fairly lightly of Citra hops, some grassy and floral flavors, a little bit of grapefruit and melon- doesn't feel very distinct to me.
The taste is basically the same. This basically seems like a waste of Citra- it's kind of watery, and neither straddles the "super juicy" line or the dry West Coast line- it's somewhere in the middle, and the worse for it.
This is kind of crisp, and mostly drinkable.
Lost Borough simply makes forgettable beers.
