A hazed blonde ale with a thick frothy lacing white head. In aroma, beautiful sweet fruity malt with loads of citrusy pulp, light Brett, light tropical fruits, earthy character, nice and complex. In mouth, a nice grapefruit pulp malt with light acidity, light Brett, fruity esters, nice and refreshing. Bottle from LCBO.

Pours a hazy yellow-beige colour, lemonade-looking, with a white bubbly head, decent retention but not much lacing. Beautiful fresh citra hop aromas with lots of citrus notes, light grassiness and Belgian Ale yeast soft-sweetness. Looking at the 14 IBU, wondering how hoppy this will be judging from the nose. Wow, first sip is crazy sour, not bitter. Then I read the description on the label. Yep, a sour. Decent fruitiness, earthiness and yeast. Gets better as it goes, glad I tried, but not one I would have again. Interesting to say the least.

Bottle from the LCBO. Cloudy pale yellow under a large white active head that lingers. Nose is citrus and tropical fruit and a touch of funk and floral notes. Very light sweetness with a medium- grapefruit and lemon zest bitterness and light+ tartness. Mouth is medium- with active carbonation and a quick finish. This is an interesting and highly drinkable combination. 8/4/8/3+/15+

Bench Citra Grove 6% on tap at Bar Hop.

A dry hopped sour but 3.25$ a 4 oz is a tad pricey. A very pale cloudy gold with a candyish citra hop bouquet with a tangy undertone. Medium to light bodied with a decent tartness and citra flavor - success, well done.
