Bottle from Nisa Supermarket, Hebden Bridge. Marked down but nowhere near out of date, must have come loose from a multi-pack. Blonde pilsner with a somewhat steamed texture, with a very mild activity evident in the palate. Nothing too stated about its styling with only a light sweetness.

Amber, clear, frothy white head
Aroma of very light citrus, hint of pale malt, dull
Taste of light citrus, slight floral notes, light sweet pale caramel malts, very soft bitter hops, not juicy, really not getting any of Citra hops here, more pale malt than hops, bland and insipid
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, light bitter. Finish is a bit dry, light bitter, light sugars
Overall - Dullest Citra IPA I've had. Not juicy, hardly any hops. Won't be getting this again
