Everyone told Kung Fu Kitten that kittens couldn't do kung fu. They said that the karate chop was only for cats, and not kittens. They said he was too young. Too cute. Too cuddly. They said get your heads out of the clouds - you've got to lay off the cat-nip. Well, they were wrong. Oh, boy were they wrong. When Lil Citra stepped onto the Epic Battlefield he wasn't just battling Unicorns, The Ninjas, The Lizard King...he was battling his past.

American beer tasting at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Color: dark gold. White foam. Aroma is citrus and herbaceous. In taste, malts balance the bitterness nicely. Discrete dryness. Nice beer. -- rated with beerbasher/winphone

Can shared @So Good (Rome), thank you Federico and Edo! Pours opalescent yellow with a medium to little white head. Aroma is fruity with resin notes and caramel, pungent. Flavour is medium malty with a medium to light bitter end. Medium to light body, medium carbonation. Not bad.

Tasted from the tap on the 18/09/2016. Hazy dark golden colour with a medium white head. Aroma of orange, bread, floral hops and some grapefruit. Taste is rich fruity, tropical mango and grapefruit. Some resin and grassy hops on the aftertaste. Really nice! Next one please!

Sample at The Bad Apple in Chicago. Hazy golden color with a medium white head that evaporates steadily to an outer ring. Short strings of lace. Grassy hops, citrus and malt in the nose. Light-bodied with flavors of tangerine, grassy hops and toasted malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a citrusy hop aftertaste. Above average overall.

Can@Himmeriget, Copenhagen - orange pour with white head. Fruity and malty with notes of orange and lemon, some grapefruit, floral and light grassy hoppy into the close. Good sessioner. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Can courtesy of mybestfriend. Pours hazy golden with a frothy white head that leaves some sparse sticky lacing on the glass while dissipating. Smell is tiny malty, slightly fruity and slightly grassy with cookies, grapefruit juice, pineapple, star fruit, moist grass, pine needles, minerals, lemon zest and hints of cardboard. Taste is bitter, slightly fruity and grassy. Mouthfeel is tiny crisp, slightly watery, slightly astringent and light bodied. Finish is bitter with crackers, grapefruit, unripe tropical fruits, grass, pine, minerals and lemon zest. But faded in the hops, unbalanced in the bitterness and watery. Refreshing but not much more. --- Beer merged from original tick of Lil Citra on 04 Sep 2016 at 17:36 - Score: 6. Original review text: Bit faded in the hops, unbalanced in the bitterness and watery.
