Meanwhile now it is 2016 and a nice letter informed us that we would only be getting 60% of the Citra we ordered. Damn here we go again. We had just re-brewed the new version of Faceless Spreadsheet Ninja and we did not want to go through the whole variations process again.We also have a history of making changing hop beers (Little Things that Kill and Holy Hoppin' Hell) so the possibility of adding a 3rd changing hop beer to our roster opened up. So when we relaunch Ninja in March it will be as "Spreadsheet Ninja" a 4.8% single hop, changing hop pilsner. Many of the batches will be the Citra hop as we are only a little short on Citra leaf but expect some other batches to materialise during the year. I'm particularly interested to see how the Sorachi one comes out.

Draught @ City Pub. Pours hazy golden with a frothy white head that leaves lots of sticky lacing on the glass while dissipating. Smell is tiny fruity and slightly malty with whole grain crackers, biscuits, bread, grapefruit, moist grass, dried flowers, minerals and lemon peal. Taste is tiny sweet, bitter, fruity and floral. Mouthfeel is crisp, round, astringent and light to medium bodied. Finish is bitter with crackers, biscuits, grapefruit, moist grass, dried flowers and lemon peal. Quite alright but would have preferred something even crisper and cleaner with a prominent citra presence.

Same beer as Citra Pilsner? Hazy gold with a good pale cream colour head. Palate is light and smooth with good fine carbonation. Smooth pale malts, light and a little dry. Mild citric hops. Light semi dry finish. Mellow bitter linger. It’s okay, comes over as a mellow APA. Which is exactly what I thought Citra Pilsner did.

Keg at George & Dragon, Acton. It pours lightly hazy golden with a small white head. The nose is fresh, clean, cereal, grain, light piss and freshly cut grass. The taste is crisp, clean, bitter, straw, grassy, tropical fruit action, five alive fruit juice and cereal with a dry finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Crisp, clean and drinkable. Citra is not as big as I had expected. Good pils though....

Bottle from The Bottle Shop and drunk at home. Clear gold slight haze lasting white head. An ok lager. Quite hoppy on the finish. Reasonably clean. More like a hoppy golden ale. Quite tasty. Fine.

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Fergus. Pours clear gold with a foamy white head. Pleasant aroma of dried citrus fruits and pale, biscuity malts. Nicely balanced flavor, mellow pithy bitterness, pale bready sweetness, slight hay. Light bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with some rindy citrus bitterness, mild pith, pale bread. Good stuff.
