The compelling, exceptional aroma of Citra hops once inspired us to brew a single hop IPA showcasing the character of this variety. Today, still impressed by the tropical and citrus fruit aromas that can be squeezed out of this hop, we give you our Imperial Citra IPA, one of our hoppiest beers.

The Polish and German night. Craft Clerkenwell. With Travlr and ChrisO. Keg. Hazy orange - amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is airy, semi dry and crisp. Thin airy malts, mild sweetness. Hops bring bitterish orange peel and a trace of lemon. Light finish. Bitter peel linger. Quite drinkable but this DIPA is not getting the most from one of the worlds great hops.

Keg at CBC Clerko, 02/10/15. Golden orange with a decent off white covering. Nose is mango, tangerine, pine, citric tinged straw, earthy hop. Taste comprises light grapefruit, tangerine, orange pith, pine needle. Medium + bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with hop bitterness. Ok DIPA but far from greatdom.

Tap at Beer Geek madness 2. Amber color with medium white head. Citrus aroma. Nice citrus hoppy taste with solid malty backbone. Alcohol is dangerously hidden.

Very good traditional DIPA, strong hoppy citrusy fruity aroma and flavour, high bitterness, alcohol not overwhelming.

Butelka 0.5l (17.09.2015). Barwa bursztynowa, piana biala lekko zlamana, gesta, trwala, swietnie krazkuje. Aromat sredniointensywny, chmielowy z nutami owocow tropikalnych i cytrusow z przewaga tropikow. Piwo jest srednio do wytrawnego z porzadnym kopem chmielowej goryczki, ktora jest swietnie zbalansowana ze slodycza piwa, przez co nie ma sie wrazenia, ze to jest az 111 IBU. Goryczka jest intensywna ale nie zalega choc troche odklada sie na podniebieniu ale w przyjemny, rozgrzewajacy sposob. Swietny posmak, goryczkowo-slodki delikatnie pobudza kubki smakowe. Piwo pije sie swietnie choc czuc rozgrzewajaca moc trunku.
