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.

12 oz bottle. Aroma is citrusy, obviously, along with faint grain. Pours clear golden with a medium bone-white head with good retention and some lace. Taste is lightly bitter with flavors of tangerine, some bready malt, biscuit. Creamy mouthfeel but a little thin and watery. I like it, though.

Pour is a clear amber with a large white head. Aroma is a eye opening tangerine and citrus. Flavor is a citrus fruit juice with some bitterness and a slight sweet white sugar. When it comes to these fruit IPA’S I can’t tell from the additions added or its the hops themselves which give the beer flavor . This is plenty fruity so I would like to think it’s both.

Pours a clear, copper-gold, with middling head. Aroma is floral and grassy--where’s the tangerine? Flavor is quite grassy and straw-like, with a good helping of hop bite, but again, where is the tangerine? I don’t smell it. I don’t taste it. Rather run-of-the-mill IPA.

Draft at the black bird during sfbw. Pale yellow coloured pour with a thin white froth. Aroma is dank citrus lemon, straw, rind, diesel, some plastic. Flavour is composed of pale grains, little rustic, lemon cleaning product, thin lemon rind, assertive citrus bitterness. Palate is light , moderate carbonation, semi sweet.

Bottle: Bright golden orange color with a modest white head. The aroma is really quite nice; an intense fruity, tropical hoppiness. Very nice. Taste is a little malty and has a muted fruity hop taste. Mostly sweet, light bitters.

Sample at Daily Growler UA. Clear golden-amber color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily to a film. Strings of lacing. Aroma of citrus, hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of tangerine, citrusy hops and malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hops aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
