Fresh Hop Citra IPA
Ferment Brewing Company

 

Look: Burnt orange with a frothy off-white head that holds as a pillow, slowly settling and leaving great lacing behind
Aroma: Lime, ruby-red grapefruit, light papaya, fresh hop cones, strawberries, kumquats, raspberries, and bready malt
Taste: Mixed berries and limes get things going, hitting hard up front and then settling in as waves of papaya trickle in and join. Citrus fruit reigns in the middle as grapefruit and kumquats shine, along with pithy raw hop cones through the close that includes a nice bite
Mouthfeel: Full, lightly slick, medium-high carbonation, and felt, medium-strength dryness on the finish
Overall: I dig it. I love Citra as a wet hop addition but rarely have access to them later in the season so glad I found this as it’s a tasty one. Citra’s unique lime/papaya/berry aspects ae on display throughout and comes together nicely. Worth the purchase and try for sure
