This is our flagship beer which is brewed exclusively with Citra hops. The aroma is an intoxicating bouquet of grapefruit, tropical fruit, lemon, and pine.

Bottle. Pours clear amber orange with a large off-white creamy head that dissipates slowly with nice sticky lacing. Aroma is quite nice - citra all the way, grapefruit, resin, passionfruit. Flavor is about the same. quite nice actually, little sweetness, medium bitterness. Light body, a bit oily and watery at the same time (yes I know those dont mix!). Quite good - yet another winner from michigan!

First beer from Roast Detroit chose off an ipad oddly. its a nice copper pour with white head and a hoppy clean nose. Tastes of mandarin oranges, grains, pine, maybe some wood. nice clean crisp brew from a brewer i hadn’t heard of previous

Smells fruity. Purs golden with great lacing. Medium to high carbonation. Not as much leave, only a little bitter. Some sourness. Good session IPA. On tap at Hopcat.

Draft. I agree with the brewer’s description; it overlaps the pale ale and IPA styles. It is more malty and less hoppy than an IPA. Crisp, slightly sweet, bitter.

Sampled from the tap at the 15th annual MBGSF. Pours a clear gold with a slight amber hue with a large white head that lasts throughout hte beer and laces slightly. Aroma has a lot of citra hop with a nice grass note and backing grain. Flavor starts slightly dank up front with earthy pine and musty grass with a grapefruit note coming out in the finish.

On tap at Graydon’s Crossing, Grand Rapids. I lost my notes, but this was a crisp, bright pale ale with citrus pulp and rind backed by toasty malts. Sweet and bitter. Enjoyable.

On tap at Odd Side. First off, this is crystal clear orange with little head. Aromas are flat out Citra... lots of oranges, mangoes and a little bit of resin. Flavor is a perfect mix of light malt that highlights the hops and enough of the citra to keep things interesting. This is about as perfect of a single hop beer as you can get.
