Ahh, Citra Pale Ale. There’s a reason so many refer to you as “old reliable”. One whiff and game over… you’re in love. With American two-row barley, a touch of Vienna malt and an intentionally irresponsible amount of Citra in the dry hop, this is the definition of a true West Coast Pale Ale.

0.473l can from Beer Republic. Aroma of citrus, passion fruit, herbs and cereals. Pours clear pale golden color with thin creamy white head, nice lacing and sparkling appearance. Taste starts juicy citrusy and mild tropical fruity, following is bready and floral, mouthfeel is smooth but rather dry, while finish is moderate bitter. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Citrastic…

Magus, mõru, pärmine, puuviljane, tsitrus, miski hakkab vastu, nagu kerge okse. Joodav.

Bottle, from Malt & Mold. Pours clear pale yellow with foamy largish white head, faint citrus aroma, medium carbonation, mildly bitter faintly soapy citrus-peel taste, thin body, medium finish. Nice, but a bit soapy.

Draught @ Apex. Golden, a light fruity note, touch honeyish, not a ton, light floral is pretty good.

On tap at Apex, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out dank hops, light herbal notes and biscuity malt. Flavour is bright, with lots of citrus, biscuity malt and piney hops. Nicely balanced, with a citric, biscuity finish. Very nice.
