Pale Ale·United Kingdom·4% ABV·One of 548 Pale Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Citra's citrusy and bitter character. A powerful grapefruit and lemon taste, a lemony, grapefruity aftertaste and a crisp, dry bitterness, from American Citra and English Pioneer hops over extra pale barley malt and maize. Citra started in 2013 as one of the brewery's monthly specials and proved so popular that it never left. A pale ale with a transatlantic twist at 4% ABV, in cask and polypin all year.
