The latest in our series of curiously strong sour ales is Citracito, a Sour Double IPA that is blasted with Citra Incognito and double dry hopped Citra Cryo, Citra, and Amarillo! Bright aromas of mixed citrus and acidic tang are complimented by soft florals and a hint of dankness. Fresh juicy citrus delights the palate with flavors of meyer lemon, tangerine, and a hint of oily hop resins. A perfect ratio of sweet and tart makes this impossibly easy to drink. Finishes medium dry and super clean.

Grabbed a can of this and a bunch of other stuff on a recent trip to Windmill Farms. North Park’s website called it “The latest in our series of curiously strong sour ales is Citracito, a Sour Double IPA that is blasted with Citra Incognito and double dry hopped Citra Cryo, Citra, and Amarillo!

Poured a pale yellow clear color with 2-to-3 fingers of frothy white head. Calm setting underneath the head with no noticeable bubbles. Very bad watery lacing. Decent retention. (Sight - 3.50)
Smelled lemon tart, Citra, tangerine, Tang, orange citrus, grapefruit and Sweet Tart candy. Just as good out of the can. (Smell - 4.25)
Tasted even better than the nose. Really a nice mix of IPA and sour. That’s hard to do. In order got Citra, lemon tart, lime zest, Tang, tangerine, grapefruit, orange citrus and Sweet Tart candy. (Taste - 4.25)
Light-to-medium body. Oily texture. Lively carbonation. Long, smooth, citrusy finish. (Feel - 4.50)
This was an excellent sour IPA. One of the better ones I’ve had. (Overall - 4.25)
