Traditional throughout Latin America, the guayabera shirt combines style, functionality, form and tradition in its four-pocketed design. We at Cigar City Brewing feel the same reverence and appreciation for the guayabera that we do for the Citra hop varietal, an ingredient that imparts notes of tangerine, lime and berries to this traditional American Pale Ale. The exclusive use of Citra hops in this beer creates a flavor that’s at once unique and recognizable, while its dry, crisp character and moderate alcohol make it as refreshing and functional as a crisp linen guayabera.

Cigar City beer named after a type of shirt - I can imagine finding inspiration for your beer names can be a daunting task if you have produced many hundred different ones... Can at Kantien, Ghent, shared by Goedele, thanks dear! Cobweb-lacing, moussy, medium thick, egg-white head, misty, warm orange blonde robe. Aroma of raw garlic, green olives, fresh orange peel, biscuit, lightly toasted white bread, grapefruit juice, dried mango cubes, white pepper, pine resin. Fruity, clean and to the point in the mouth, hinting at dried apricot, raw pineapple and unripe banana, with early 'stings' of New World hoppiness present in the onset; spritzy carbo, biscuity and cereally maltiness, rounded and clean, underneath a long, aromatic, citrusy, bit piney and garlic-like hoppiness, providing elegant retronasal aromas and a spicy, albeit relatively mild bitterness on the root of the tongue. Nice like basically all Cigar City beers (at least the ones I had so far), perhaps a tad too hoppy for an APA and closer to an IPA, but frankly who cares about that distinction...

Bottle @ tasting shared by Caesar. Slightly hazy orange color, medium sized white to off-white head that leaves fair lacing. Aroma is nicely hoppy, citrussy hoppy, lightly resinous. Taste malts, hops, very fruity, tropical fruits, citrus and lightly resinous in the distance. Medium body and carbonation. Very nice!
