Pop the top on the can - and whoa!!! What’s that smell??? That’s Citra hops, baby, coming at you in all their citrusy glory. Huge tangerine notes leap from the can, and then from the glass as you pour this slightly hazy golden orange beer into the glass, before it settles under a creamy white head that is Saran Wrapped to the glass.

A big pull from the glass yields a candied tangerine flavor that positively coats the tongue, and there’s a nice little malt flavor at the back of the palate that works really well for balance. Nicely bitter in the WCIPA style (50 IBU’s).

The mouthfeel is straight out of the WCIPA playbook, very dry, pulling you back in for another drink. This drinks exceptionally well, especially if you’re a fan of the ubiquitous Citra hop, which I most definitely am.
