Pale Ale Citra
Tupps Brewery

 

Pours a foggy orange with a finger of white foam. Head retention is good. Aroma is earthy citrus hops and bready, earthy malts. Light straw and grassy hop qualities as well. Flavor profile is tropical fruit and domestic citrus with a little gritty earth via the hops. Malts are earthy and bready. Together it leans towards bitter. Mouth feel is medium in thickness with a firm effervescence on the tip of the tongue. Overall, earthy citrus with a bitter bite.

Served in a wine glass from a 12oz can.

 

 

 

 

Exactly what it claims to be. Fair amount of citrus hops in the nose and taste. Simple pale malt base with a clean finish that isn't overly bitter. Medium-light body and medium carbonation. It exceeded expectations that I have of Tupps.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Part of a mixed sixer that had two each IPA, wheat, and this. Tasty and delicious. By boldly ignoring the naysayers who think it's possible to over-do it on the citra, tupps makes a delicious treat for hop addicts everywhere
