[5/4/13] Draught at Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2013. Cloudy orange. Wonderful hoppy aroma full of tropical fruits. Flavor has a bit of sweet malt and lots of fruity hops with moderate bitterness. Medium-bodied. Very good stuff.

Draught @ CBC 2013
Pours yellow with a tiny head. Aroma of fresh citrusy hops, lemon, hints of grass and grainy malts. Taste is fruity, citrusy and grassy with some lemon and crisp maltiness. Finish is hoppy and refreshing with loads of citrus and lemon. Nice, quite fresh and hoppy. Alcohol is well hidden 8-4-8-4-16 = 4.0
Re-rated on 13.7.2013, 330ml bottle from Ales by Mail. Bottled 02/04/13. Bottled version has a nice, much juicier and fresh zesty hoppy aroma. Taste is a bit more heavy on the malt side, as itโs not as fresh any more. Still very tasty and extremely well balanced, though.

330mL bottle, pours a cloudy pale golden with a small white head. Aroma of floral hops, some citrus hops -- classic citra notes -- and just enough malt to back. Flavour is extremely dynamic, full of floral hops, citrus hops and some caramel biscuity malts. Extremely fruity and bitter, with a wonderful body. Awesome stuff.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines; surprisingly clear golden amber pour with thin white head, massive citrus hop nose, big citrus taste really fresh tasting piney slight amount of malts, this is Tote Amazeballs. Been thinking a lot about this beer I want more had to upgrade score. --- Beer merged from original tick of India Pale Ale Double Citra on 24 Apr 2013 at 20:36 - Score: 10.

Bottle at ChrisO tasting, thanks to Toby, 30/12/12. Hazed mid amber with a thin off white head that clears to the edge. Nose is caramel malts, hops, pine, bitter grapefruit, light soap. Taste follows, hop bitterness, tropical fruits, pine. Full end of medium body with moderate carbonation leading to a bitter finish. Decent.
