Hula Hula! A super-hopped Pale Ale blending the distinctive and zesty Citra with the warm fruits of Summer to create a beer bursting with tropical citrus.
The malt bill for this Pale Ale is kept very simple, to let the hops do the singing. This beer is made almost entirely from a traditional British Pale malt called Maris Otter, regarded around the world as one of the best beer making malts ever produced, with a little bit of CaraGold for sweetness and body, and some Torrified Wheat for keeping that nice white head all fluffy.
Our Malt comes from Warminster Maltings, a traditional Victorian floor malt house just down the road in Wiltshire. They produce the finest malts available and are a thoroughly nice bunch.
This beer is packed full of Citra hops. Citra is a wonderfully potent, resinous and ballsy hop. It’s loaded with citrus notes and anything else your tastebuds may care to pick up, from guava to stone fruit. The hop has only been around since 2009 but has exploded onto the craft beer scene and has become a firm favourite for hop heads.
The Citra is balanced with the more subtle, but wonderfully warm Summer hop from Australia, adding flavours like melon and apricot to round off the crazy citrus.

Bottle from Corks of Cotham. Hazy amber with a frothy, off-white head. Sweetish citrus fruit, rich tea malts and a dryish finish. Fine, but not the best example of Wiper & True’s brewing skills.
