A blend of northwest hops known for their tropical fruit and citrus characteristics, complimented by the addition of grapefruit peel, give this northwest IPA a peachy apricot nose that transitions to the bitterness of grapefruit peel in the finish. Citrus Mistress sets the tone for citrus inspired beers everywhere.

355ml bottle. From Firmabier. No bbe found. Pours deep amber with a thick white head. Woody, grapefruity aroma, malt, some ripe berry notes. Flavor has woody notes, sweetness, berries and grapefruity bitterness. Finish is long, bitter and quite fruity. Nice balance, easy to drink. Wish it would have been fresher though.

Bomber from Made in Oregon. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Arroma is citrus zest. Flavor is near perfumy grapefruit with light stone fruit. Malt is lost in the mist. Finishes non-harshly bitter. Not really dry tho. Good stuff.
