Born as a classic pilsener lager, Citra-Pils gets the added bonus of a lively, citrusy aroma from Citra hops to create a fascinating blend of pilsener and IPA sensibilities. The result is a complex beer which is clean, crisp, and refreshing. Citra-Pils is our special “twist” on the classic pilsener style of lager beer. We brew this lager in the most traditional way, using only Light Pils malt and Saaz hops. After a six-week lagering process, we dry hop this beer with a blend of Citra and Saaz hops. The bright lemony citrus notes of the Citra complement the noble Saaz character perfectly, yielding a delightfully refreshing pilsener with a decidedly nontraditional twist.

    Enjoyed for Easter 2017 in Vermont with friends. Pours a hazy golden colour with a white frothy cap, nice lasting and foamy lacing. Cereal malt aromas with the citra hops. Citrus tasting with orange notes and light grapefruit zest that is well-blended. The mouthfeel is lightly dry. Quite nice, as not overly zest-peel dry. This is a nice blend of a few styles that go down very nicely. A different twist on the hoppy brews.
