🌍 United States · West Coast IPA · One of 12 West Coast IPAs in hopIQ

Citraholic is a West Coast IPA from Beachwood Brewing in Long Beach, California, built around an unabashed devotion to Citra hops. It pours a clear golden-amber with a bright white head that lingers with fine, persistent lacing. The aroma is an exuberant rush of tangerine, ripe mango, and freshly zested lime, layered over a clean biscuit malt backbone. On the palate, the Southern Californian sunshine comes through in waves of tropical citrus and passion fruit, balanced by a firm, resinous bitterness that keeps things grounded. The finish is dry, clean, and satisfyingly bitter — the hallmark of a well-crafted West Coast IPA. Straightforward, unapologetic, and dangerously drinkable.

Tulip glass
Recommended for this style

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.

Store in a cool, dark place. Check the best-before date on the label for guidance.
