Citra City
Revision Brewing Company

Revision just makes good beer. This one's no different. It's smooth, hoppy, citrusy, and well balanced. I want to emphasize the smoothness, it's got great mouth feel. This is a great beer, give it a try.

A-like most Revisions. Bright hazy orange with prodigious head
S-pungent pine, orange, and tangerine
T-ripe orange and tangerine, pine. average bitter, slightly above average sweet, amazingly hidden 8.5% ABV
M-Medium (+) body, chewy, slightly below avg carbonation
O-Admittedly hard to tell the Revision Hazy's apart unless you drink them side by side

16oz canned 4/09 and poured into a pub-style nonic. Very hazy bright golden pour with a small, bright white head. Juicy citrus with a thick feel to it; tropical fruit, orange, mango, peach. Citra-hops are present front-to-back with that familiar yeasty Revision body and a nice juicy sweetness. Very nice.

Can from Hops & Bottles. Hazy pour with thick fluffy head. Citrus aroma, hint of melon. Taste is oranges, tangerines, some pineapple. A little smidge of bitter hops sneaks up at the back, before being washed away by the juicy goodness. Revision knows their stuff....

 

 

 

 

Very good hazy! I might like this one more than Disco Ninja. My new Revision favorite.

 

 

Hazy, orange brew with a stick white head. Smells like oranges, grapefruit and dank, piney hops. Tastes like overly sweet orange juice with a splash of grapefruit that finishes dank and bitter. A little sweet for my tastes with the added milk sugar but a really good beer.

Nice golden hazy beer. Smell is amazing. Light hoppy smell, with orange, lemon and grapefruit smell. Taste is hop forward with a ton of grapefruit, has a bit of a sour flavor. Love the medium/heavy mouthfeel. Another great beer from Revision.

Sweet, orange-citrus slightly dank, hoppy nose! Taste follows with a balanced citrus bitter finish. The subtle sweetness on the swallow accentuates the good depth and nice mouthfeel. Good!

Can. Gold with light haze (I decant NE IPAs because they're fucking gross) lasting small head and lace. Lemon and tropical fruit pineapple aroma. Very sweet apricot lemon candy with some light grass and light lemony finish. Thick and slick (milk sugar, why?). Just kinda gross. Like too much candy or lollipops.

 

 

Interesting mix of malt and citrus with that lactose dose and a slightly bitter finish. Me likey!

I could practically copy and paste a bunch of other Revision beers here. Revision makes 50 beers with some combination of Citra, Mosaic, Simcoe, Galaxy, Eukanot and CTZ for the most part. This is one with a bit of lactose to really differentiate (nah) from the other beers they make just like it save for a minor shuffling of the hop lineup.

Anyways, has the typical hazy broth like appearance and 1/3" white head. The aroma does push Citra well, and the lactose is not apparent there thankfully. Smells like a citrus grove, somewhat reminiscent of New Glory's liquid grove beer. Oranges, tangerines and grapefruit with a small dose of pineapple.

The taste is easy, the lactose isn't over the top sugary, but it also obscures the malt body. Seemed like there is plenty of flakiness to it. It does hide the alcohol very well. The citrus notes continue throughout, while the hops may be the same, they're at least almost always top notch in the aroma and flavor departments. Carbonation otherwise decent. Would like to try the same beer but without lactose and a super dry west coast all barley malt body.
