Our Citrus IPA strikes a perfect balance between hop intensity and drinkability. Although we use a small amount of grapefruit, Citrus gets its wonderful flavors from a mixture of hop products. The key hops are Mosaic and Simcoe with some other varieties in a supporting role.

Very hazy orange and copper coloured body with a thick, two to three centimetre tall off-white and hazy head that coats the beer nicely. Aroma of super pungent hops with resin, grapefruit, pine, orange, citrus and pure grassy notes all with a good malt backbone noticeable along with some light funk and a dash of herbal and peppery notes. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong citrusey and sweet flavours at first with a little grain, a touch of resin and a light, but noticeable pine flavour, all with a great fresh hop bite with the grapefruit and tropical fruit flavours the strongest by far with a light bitterness, but not bad, considering all the hops that went into making this one. Aftertaste is deep and robust with the citrus and the resin the strongest notes, but a relatively good balance and smooth finish make this even clean and 'easy-drinking' despite the major hop components. Overall, a nice and ultra dry beer with some good complexity and quite the range from the hops - still not world class or a beer that you must try, but nice to have from the brewery and region. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Joe Canal's Discount Liqour in Lawrenceville, New Jersey on 21-October-2018 for US$1,99 sampled at my house in Washington on 13-November-2018.

Sampled on draft at Tapped this beer poured a cloudy vibrant peach gold color with a large foamy bright white head that left very good lacing. The aroma was cactus, pine, grapefruit and pineapple. The flavor was funky, earthy and musty with cactus, lemon, pepper and pineapple. Very long finish. Moderately full bodied.

Got in a trade with spelingchampeon. 12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 6/20/2018. Pours very hazy golden orange/amber color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and rocky off white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of huge tangerine, orange juice, lemon, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berries, citrus zest, light pepper/pine, honey, biscuit dough, light caramel, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt notes; with big strength. Taste of huge tangerine, orange juice, lemon, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berries, citrus zest, light pepper/pine, honey, biscuit dough, light caramel, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very mild pine, zesty, herbal, grassy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, orange juice, lemon, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berries, citrus zest, light pepper/pine, honey, biscuit dough, light caramel, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; with a solid malt/bitterness balance and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Slightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready, and slightly sticky mouthfeel that is fantastic. Minimal warming alcohol for 6.7%. Overall this is a fantastic NEIPA! All around outstanding complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and pretty refreshing to drink with very minimally bitter/drying finish. Amazingly soft feel. Amazing Citra, Mosaic, Simcoe hop showcase. Insanely juicy hop complexity with slight dankness; and great wheat/oat/malt balance. Not overly sweet/heavy. A highly enjoyable offering, and spot on style example.
