Our Jam! Eureka w/Citra explodes with citrus fruit on the nose and the palate , and finishes cleanly with light bits of cracker malt. Someone forgot to tell it that it's only 4.1% alcohol. A beautiful and pungent, yet delicate and highly drinkable beer!

Can. A- Grassy, pine, catty, dank, tropical citrus, orange, cream. A- Yellow color, cloudy liquid, white head. T- Mild banana, mild rubber, orange, pineapple, slightly bitter, milk, slightly dank. P- Medium body, creamy texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- My 3,000th rate and an excellent one at that, thanks to MetalNHopHead. At 4 months old, this was "past it's prime" but hey, I'll take a vintage Tree House over no Tree House. Gets me excited to try more stuff from this. Mixes the best qualities of a blonde with a milkshake style IPA and results in a delectable brew. The nose was more on the grassy side and the flavor more on the fruity creamy side with a bit of a rubbery banana flavor that I seemed to pick up. No distinction on the can of if it was the regular, citra, or mosaic, but I've been told I had the citra. Overall, good stuff. Onward to 10k!

Can from the brewery. Said Citralicious or something on the bottom. Citrusy nose, wheaty biscuits, pineapple, some resin. Wheaty malt flavor, ok hops but not particularly outstanding. Decent but doesn't really shine.

8/VIII/17 - 1Pt. can mentioning "Citra, citra, citra!" on the bottom, from a trade, shared @ Help-Me-Get-to-10K-In-Time-Tasting 1 - BB: n/a, canned: VI/6/17 (2017-1188) Thanks to Ryan for the trade!
Little cloudy blond beer, huge frothy off-white to yellowish head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a lot of lacing in the glass. Aroma: lots and lots of citrus, lots of grapefruit as well, some pineapple juice, very fruity! MF: lively carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty bitter, hoppy, citrus, bit watery, some grapefruit, more citrus, pineapple notes. Aftertaste: bit grassy, lots of grapefruit, hoppy touch, very bitter, bit resinous, lots of fruits, some pineapple. Wondering why this is categorized as a Golden Ale, rather than a Session IPA...

16 oz. shared by Chalumeaux. Pour is slightly hazy golden with lasting white head and sticky lacing. Aroma is pineapple, papaya, grass, and light citrus.
Taste is juicy Citra hops all the way through. Nice soft airy mouthfeel. Very easy to drink. The hop is displayed nicely and is very flavorful but... Would I stand in line to buy 4 cans of this?? No I would not. Not sure why everyone is so crazy about Treehouse. Good for what a golden ale is but.... Yeah.

Canned 02/01/17 - Go Pats! Pours hazy peach into a tulip. Bright white soapy head with medium retention recedes to coat surface. Dank weed, lemongrass and tropical fruit aromas. Dry with citrus and resin upfront turning to a mild, abrupt dusty cracker finish.
