hopIQ found 10 beers with the same citrusy and resinous character as Citrusy Pale Ale. Amber and lightly hazy, closer to copper than gold. Grapefruit zest and candied orange rind lead the nose, with pine resin behind them and toasted grain and caramel underneath. The hops stay in front on the palate in the older North American manner: citrus peel and resin over a caramel malt base that carries them without rounding them off. The bitterness runs medium to firm, and the finish is dry and resinous with the caramel still audible under it. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
