This beer is not candy or mother’s milk. It is not brewed by gypsies or aliens, nor does it contain any zombie dirt. This is an American Style IPA brewed with Citra Hops. It is citrusy, sticky, hoppy and delicious. Simply drink it and enjoy it. Don’t hoard this beer, Citra Ass Down and drink it now. (Online description:) This is a very hop forward American style IPA. Brewed with Pale, Vienna, Munich and wheat malt for a solid base for all American hops, focusing mainly on the variety “Citra.” Citra hops are a relatively new variety introduced in 2008. It was bred as a hybrid of a number of different hops, including Hallertauer Mittelfrüh, U.S. Tettnanger, East Kent Golding, Bavarian, Brewers Gold, and other unknown hops. The resulting hop, Citra, has a distinct citrusy and tropical fruit flavor and aroma. In Citra ass down we used American Columbus for bittering and 11# of Citra at the end of the boil for late kettle addition flavor and aroma. Then we added 6 more pounds Citra and 5# Centennial post fermention for aroma. Rebrewed for your tasting pleasure!

    473 ml can, from Vinmonopolet. ABV is 8.2%. Hazy golden to orange colour, small white head. Aroma of fresh and mixed citrus fruits, also some stale orange marmalade in the background. The flavour is sweet, fruity, alcoholic, unrefined, very bitter and unbalanced. Still not undrinkable.

    Just doggone near off the chain good. The hop aroma is pleasantly intense - even those with the worst of sinus congestion could get a whiff of this. The flavor is piney-resin and bold as well. Just enough malt back to hold it all together. Stellar!

    22 oz bottle. Pours very hazy golden yellow with a big rocky white head that retains well and laces the glass.

    The aroma is biscuity malts and sweet fruity, piney hops.

    The flavor is biscuity malts and some fruit with bitter grassy piney hops. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with some sharp carbonation.

    Overall, a decent DIPA, but way overpriced at 16 bucks a bomber.

    Aroma is SERIOUSLY hoppy - just about follows you around the room - with a firm citrus underpinning.pours a slightly hazy golden amber with a fairly thick and frothy ivory head. Boldly hoppy flavor has both resiny and woody components, the former being the stronger, plus subtle notes of Mandarin orange and grapefruit; bitterness is minimal. Firm texture is quite fizzy and leaves a hoppy, resiny finish. Get your @$$ down in front of one!
