Two Dope Hops in a Cadillac - Citra/Motueka
White Elephant Beer Co.

A: Pours a lightly hazy medium to dark golden yellow in color with moderate amounts of active visible carbonation rising quickly from the bottom of the glass and moderate amber + caramel + honey + bright yellow colored highlights. The beer has a three finger tall dense sudsy foamy off-white head that slowly reduces to a large patch of thick film covering the entire surface of the beer and a thick ring at the edges of the glass. Light amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Slightly stronger than moderate aromas of juicy citrus/grapefruit + citrus/grapefruit zest + citrus/orange + herbal hops over the top of light to moderate aromas of biscuit + oat + toasted + caramel malts with a light amount of caramel sweetness.

T: Upfront there are light to moderate flavors of biscuit + oat + toasted + caramel malts with a light amount of caramel sweetness. That is followed by moderate to strong flavors of juicy citrus/grapefruit + citrus/grapefruit zest + citrus/orange + herbal hops which impart a light amount of bitterness which fades away quickly leaving moderate lingering citrus + herbal hop flavors.

M: Light to medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Crisp with a light amount of soft/fluffiness mid-body and a moderate amount of dryness in the finish.

O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a refreshing crisp yet soft/fluffy mouthfeel. Enjoyable with a pleasant almsot West Coast hop profile flavors + aromas but juicier and with a softer mouthfeel. I'm glad I was able to grab a crowler of this one from my local shop during the social distancing.
