American Pale Ale hopped with Citra and infused with Arcane Distilling distilled hop oils. This is a soft Citra whirlpooled and Citra dry-hopped pale ale we dosed with a gnarly mix of hops. Super drinkable. We’ve probably crushed a couple 4-packs of this beer already. Super rad to meet and get together with Arcane Distilling. Many beef sandwiches and combos were had. Giardinera please.

I got a can of this beer from my good friend and old neighbor from the 'Wego. It poured a hazy golden with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had dank citrus notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with semi sweet malt and dank pineapple and orange peel spice presence. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a solid beer.

Yields a completely hazed yellow color with a smaller, slowly dissolving head atop.
Offers aromas of sun ripened oranges, as well as powerful, almost resinous limes, which manage to inherit a subtle flowery quality at the same time.
The mouthfeel of the beer is light and refreshing with a lighter creaminess among a subtle, yet well working effervescence during its finish.
Tastes of sugar coated orange pulp and fresh cut limes, creating a truly vivid and fruit forward appearance, balanced by lighter white bread crust and a light hop bite. Offers a mellow middle part, highlighting the fruity citra hops in this, while producing a zingy hop bite at the same time. Finishes with a fantastic citrus intensity, lighter resin and a solid dyr- and bitterness, which coates the tongue for quite a while.
This is a great example of how to showcase one of the most iconic hops in craft beer history. This is an easy drinking, in your face, hop forward pale ale with a nice mouthfeel and balance to it. There is not much more going on in this apart from that, but nothing more is required to create satisfaction.

Canned 10/16/18; drank 10/25/18 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque orange appearance.
A rough pour yielded a big white head; strong tree-rung lace.
Orange peel, melon, mild cane sugar & faint dry grass notes in the nose.
Creamy medium mouthfeel.
Melon & cream flavors up front; orange peel & dry grass notes on the finish.
Nice body & flavor for a lower abv brew; this one was impressive.

More body than abv would suggest. Excellent hop combo. Would be outstanding if just a bit less sweetness.
