As rarefied electrical fire lights the horizon of infinity, raise a glass with KING LOUIE. How we glows with pride for his self-titled Citra/Simcoe 2XIPA! How his effervescent draught shimmers with extrasolar light and the royal cup overfloweth with citrus aromas! And how his wandering eye scans the path of escape...

Cans from the source: pours clear orange with a white head. Aroma is thick tropical fruitiness. Tastes is lightly bitter. Pretty sweet. Medium to thick body. A bit syrupy in the aftertaste.

Draught at the brewery, 2/16/17.
Moderately hazy, bright, copper-golden body with a small, off-white head of moderately-low retention.
Again it’s very dry, highly attenuated and as such, there’s definite alcohol here (though it’s also 9%, so that obviously contributes). Grapefruit, moderate resin and some fruitiness to be had, at least though I wouldn’t go as far as to call the nose overly juicy. Lots of woody notes, dry pithy bitterness, grain and booze in the nose with light melon and pineapple lingering.
In the mouth it’s quite hot, boozy, sharp and very, very well-attenuated. Pith, marshmallow and alcohol linger yet I can’t quite write it off as it’s got a somewhat supple malt texture despite the massive attenuation. Engaging carbonation and tons of melon, apple, pineapple and grapefruit lingering.
