    off the top of my head - Sticker Fight from steal toe, Todd the axe man (on tap only), Nebraska IPA (obviously not a MN beer but available here), Day Tripper has some citra in it I believe, Town Hall Citra Mania/Citra Session, Abrasive uses some citra but not quite out yet.

    Masala Mama has citra, but I can't pick it out when I drink it. There's a handful of other hops in there as well.

    Summit Sága and Frost Line Rye use Citra hops (along with other hops).

    Really? Is this a recent recipe adjustment? I ask because that beer has been around a long time and Citra is relatively new hop variety.

    For anyone else interested, it appears the recipe has changed from Amarillo, Cascade, Centennial and Mt. Hood (as listed on the Beer Advocate original description) to:

    Amarillo, Cascade, Centennial, Mt. Hood, Citra, EXP 342 according to a several sources including

    So when it's fresh - that is IMHO one of the best Citra beers on the planet. It's hard to live up to that I think, although some Vermont, and Cali breweries come to mind that come pretty close. As for locally I would say Citra Mania from town hall is probably the closest I have had.

    Had a Surly Todd the Axe Man tonight. Citra/Mosaic/Hercules blend. Maybe the best non-Wet Surly IPA.
