Featuring an absolute explosion of resinous pine and citrus notes with Centennial, an incredible old school hop, backed up with a mellow earthiness, this hop was just made to be paired up with one of our mainstays in Citra.
A beer that celebrates everything about the new school with a foot firmly planted in the old school, this beer is a homage to the craft brewers of America without whom the revolution would never have happened.

Can. Pours hazy straw with stable white head. Clear aroma of hops and citrus, with notes of yeast and some malty touches. Bitter flavour of hops, grass and citrus, with notes of yeast and touches of malt. Bitter and citric aftertaste with mestery notes. Clean and enjoyable but nothing really illuminating.

Can, 5.4%. Citric hop aroma which bites in the nose. Muddy yellow colour. Good stable white head. The flavour is quite fruity with a good peach note. A little old fruit, perhaps, not quite rotten, though. Good clean bitterness. And good mouthfeel.

Can at home, 28/08/19. Hazed golden orange with a decent white cap. Nose is orange squash, citric pith, melon, papaya, grass. Taste comprises orange pith, mineral bite, grass, ripe orange, tangerine, melon. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with grassy hop bitterness. Passable pale ... overly heavy on minerality... had some cracking IPA’s from Polly recently but the last 3 pales I’ve had have been below par.

Can at home. Hazy pale yellow color, full sized white head. Nice grassy citrus aroma. Flavor is lightly malts, citrus, nice citrus hoppy bitter. I like this one although it's a little sharp. Good. 8-3-8-4-16

Can from Vino Wines. Hazy pale golden body with a white head. Steady carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of wet concrete and herbs. Flavour of lemon and minerals. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. Bitter and pithy. Not up to Polly Brew’s usual high standards.

440ml can form Station. Pours opaque hazy gold, large frothy white head. Aroma of fresh exotic citrus. Taste bears similarly fresh citrus, but reliant largely on a pale malt character, decent, but by no means a great pale ale.

Grassig, uien, wel redelijk bitter nog. Ik mis wel een beetje het fruitige vd Citra. Vrij hard en vlak
