Our West Coast style pale ale showcases the tropical juiciness of the Citra hop. Aromas of mango and passionfruit lead into flavours of sweet citrus, with a subtle malt finish. A tribute to one of our favourite hops, this amber coloured beer is as flavourful as it is sessionable.

Pours clear dark orange with a smooth head. Aroma of citrus, caramel, toffee, pine and caramel. Taste is smooth, hoppy and citrusy with some caramely maltiness and pine. Finish is bitter, hoppy and fruity with some caramely maltiness and citrus. Pretty good.

Draught at the brewery
Amber color, clean, with creamy head. The aroma is hoppy, very nice, with a good mix of hops that is not just Citra, with more orangey detour. The mouthfeel is quite smooth; nice body strength; good caramel flavor, light residual sweetness, strong bitterness; the hops are quite resiny and with some citrus fruits character too; long final, with a light yeast presence and light subsequent astringency.
Flawless, clean, nice to drink.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a cloudy orange amber with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out a potent fruity hoppiness, quite a bit of resin and dry zestiness. Flavour is very potent for a pale ale, bringing out loads of floral and fruity hops, and considerable caramel sweetness. Quite a bit sweeter than I like my pale ales usually, but the drinkability is still fairly high. Flawed, but enjoyable.
