Hyperfocus: Citra
Hyperfocus: Citra belongs to Grimm's Hyperfocus series of single-hop double IPAs, in which one variety is used without any other hop. The Citra version first appeared in 2018 and returns regularly. Creamy, sticky mango and passion fruit lead, joined by a faint note of rose that the brewery attributes to the hop's high geraniol content, with a herbal edge in the background. The heavy Citra dose gives the beer a milky, pale opacity, even for a hazy IPA. It is brewed at 8 per cent.
