Tangerine IPA

Tune in and hop out with New Belgium Citradelic. Set adrift on a kaleidoscopic wave of hoppiness brought to you by a mystical marriage of Citra hops and tangerine peel, which elevates each sip onto a plane of pure tropical, fruity pleasure. Citradelic’s namesake hop and fruit combine to jam with visions of additional hops like citrusy Mandarina Bavaria, tropical Azzaca, and fruity Galaxy for a colorful explosion that’s grounded by just a touch of malty sweetness. Bored by the status quo? Expand your palate with a pour of Citradelic.

A golden ipa with a thin off white head. In aroma, light caramel malt with light grassy citrusy hops, a bit underwhelming. In mouth, a grainy malt with light grassy hops, light mineral notes, faint citrusy hops, light mineral notes, boring. On tap at Local Tavern.

On draft at Jackson Whole Grocer it is a clear Holden color with a frothy head. The aroma is citrus and the taste is a bitter citrus flavor that finishes with a bitter orange

12oz bottle. Sort of nails it for what it is, a fruity IPA. Really more a fruit beer. The tangerine does come close to mimicking the tropical flavors of new school dry hopping, some nice honeydew, honeysuckle nectar. At the end of the day an OK beverage, but not really a great beer.

Complete failure. Barely any hop aroma or flavor, mild citrus and fruit, indistinct. Weak flavors, hardly any bitterness, faint tangerine flavors but also weird off-flavors.

Bottle @ home, post Broncos Super Bowl win. Pours a clear golden orange appeance with an off white head. Aroma is dank, very citrusy, orange, and pineapple in the nose. Medium body. Off dry. Moderate light bitterness. A little thick and doughy. Somewhat spicy with white pepper, toasted bread, orange/grapefruit citrus. Sort of good but the flavor doesn’t blow me away. Fine but not great.

Bottle shared at JoeT’s house during RBWG 2016. Pours clear gold with a frothy white head. Nice citrusy hops in the nose, some rindy tangerine, dry pale bread. Medium sweet flavor with lots of grapefruit, pale grains, tangerine. Light to medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. More citrus notes in the finish, tangerine, pine needles, grapefruit. Tasty IPA. Drinks well.

Bottle split at Joe T Baus, Santa Rosa, 04/02/16. Clear pale golden with a decent off white covering. Nose is big orange, tangerine, sweet citric sherbets. Taste comprises floral notes, clementines, sweet toasted bread, cantaloupe melon. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a floral hop rinse. Ok if a touch sweet and floral.
