Score

7.10

ABV: 8.0%

IBU: 95

Ticks: 5

What began in 2017 as our inaugural 16 oz. can release has become the annual flagship release in our year-round Experimental IPA series. This 100% Citra Double India Pale Ale is brewed with concentrated Citra Lupulin Powder, then Double Dry-Hopped with a dose of 3 lbs. per barrel for an even fresher Citra finish on the back end. The result is a full-bodied 8.0% ABV offering with a clean, dry finish and a tightrope balance of bitterness and dank, juicy, citrusy notes.
