We still can’t believe it’s taken us more than 10 years to come around to the idea of brewing a single-hop Citra Pale Ale in the New England style! Massive citrus flavours all around with a green waxy background twang to leave your pallet aching for another sip of this 4.9% milky yellow haze bomb. All Citra, all the time.

Panda thanks to Cloin. A medium haze on this gold beer, thin pale cream colour head. Light palate, slightly thin, decent fine carbonation. Thin malts, a mild creamy sweetness. Light cooling pine. Hop spice nibbles. Mild savoury skunk. Slightly ripe orangey citrus. Mild marmalade. Light finish. Tidy but, whilst a single hop Citra beer was a thing of wonder 15 years ago, for me, the world has moved on. Good stuff but just won't live long in the memory.

Tap at PBF 2025. Golden body, smooth white head. Pellety herbal-citric hoppy aroma. Dry, pellety, citric hoppy taste, lightly resinous, bit sweetish and oaty, smooth in general. Not in the bestestest of shapes.

Cloudy pale gold colour lasting white head. New England style aroma. Some dankness in the flavour
Some pineapple. Not a lot of bitterness. I mean it's just not me. Light dankness bit the boiled hop flowers is all I get. OK condition. I mean at least it's cold and slightly refreshing.

Can from The Craft Beer Cabin, Bromley. Nice nose of lemon sherbet, white grape, passionfruit, lychee, spot of lime. Flavours are much the same. Fruity bittersweet with very tasty burps. Good stuff.

Big pint at Be Hoppy Madrid. Murky yellow, clingy white head. Nice nose, really green and dank, grasses, green citrus, flowers. Flavor is the same, cheese curds, scallions, green grasses, floral. Just a little bit of bitterness, medium bodied and basically dry.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 03/04/2025.
Hazed orange topped with a lasting just off white head.
Nose is juicy citric flesh, orange zest, pineapple, ripe melon, grass, soft malts.
Taste comprises mellow tropical fruits, grass, light pine dusting, grapefruit, orange zest, ripe melon.
Medium bodied, light spritzy carbonation, semi drying close splashed with balanced juicy come grassy hop bitterness.
Solid Citra single hop affair.
