Another hazy banger full of hop saturation and drinkability! This time with Citra & El Dorado Lupomax.

We get loads of sweaty dankness (don't believe it's even a thing, but whatever), green mango and bitter grapefruit from Citra, and candied tropical fruit from El Dorado. Soft malt base of Maris Otter, flaked wheat and malted oats lets the hops really shine in this one.
