A Hop That Needs No Introduction - Citra And Motueka
Untied Brewing Company

Very hazy swirl of peachy orange pushes a very fluffy head. Great retention, layers of lush lacing.
Nose is zesty lemon, tangerine, orange, grapefruit, and a mild tropical note that doesn't specifically taste like any one fruit.
Taste is very bright lemon, some pithy grapefruit, and notes of peach and apricot. A tad of mango peeks in as well. Finishes a slightly drying bitterness.
Mouthfeel is lush and pillowy. Carbonation keeps everything moving.
Overall, a great NEIPA. And I am not a big fan of Motueka hops but they do add another pleasing note to this one.
Thanks MacMalt

Reviewed during week of release. Poured from 16 oz. can into a tulip glass. It pours a turbid, dirty tangerine color with a large, thick, frothy, egg white head and heavy, clinging lacing. The smell just pops with lemon, grapefruit, ripe peach, and the unique tropical scent of Motueka. The taste opens with tart, acidic lemon, lime, and grapefruit balanced by ripe peach and lychee. Untied has upped the bitterness and this ale has a clean, crisp hoppy bite at the finish. The mouth feel is surprisingly lite and crisp for 7.1% AVB. The carbonation is pleasant and it's super drinkable. Citra and Motueka work well together and Untied has brought out their best in this excellent NE IPA.
