Can from BrewDog Birmingham Pours hazy gold with white head. Rich citruses on a nose. Tastes medium bitter, juicy, bit higher carbonation. Hoppy kick suits well this one. Tasty.

Medium, lightly yellowish head over lively carbonated hazy orange beer. Very citrussy nose, orange/lemon and certainly grapefruit. Faint hints at Brett? Citruspeel. Bitter, citruspeel, orangeliqueur, hints at pineapple. Titillating carbonation, quite slick; wry, dry aftertaste. Severe DDH... not bad.

Citra is life. Juicy, sweet and citrussy, whilst also having some bitterness. Nice thickness, very smooth, and a bit boozy. All I want in a DIPA, although it's less juicy and more beery than some of its UK counterparts. Good stuff.

Pours a slightly hazy, peach-orange, with minimal head. Aroma has some stone fruit, peach, sour washcloth, dank basement. Flavor is quite grassy, with some citrus and tropical notes. Pretty run-of-the-mill stuff.

16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 3/13/2018. Pours very hazy golden orange/amber color with a 1 finger dense and rocky off white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of huge tangerine, orange juice, lemon, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus peel/zest, light pepper/pine, honey, wheat, biscuit dough, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Incredible aromas with fantastic complexity and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt notes; with big strength. Taste of huge tangerine, orange juice, lemon, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus peel/zest, light pepper/pine, honey, wheat, biscuit dough, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Light pine, citrus peel/zest, herbal, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, orange juice, lemon, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus peel/zest, light pepper/pine, honey, wheat, biscuit dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; with an awesome malt/bitterness balance, and zero lingering hop astringency after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy, fairly sticky, and slightly resinous mouthfeel that is fantastic. Mildly increasing warmth of 8%. After the finish. Overall this is an amazing NEDIPA! All around incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink for the ABV, with the mildly bitter/drying finish. Awesome spot on soft mouthfeel. Extremely juicy and fairly dank hop complexity; nice malt backbone, not overly sweet/heavy for the ABV. A highly enjoyable offering, and spot on style example. Loved the hop profile as expected. Wonderful Citra/Simcoe showcase.
