Hyperfocus: Citra

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden-orange with a distinctly hazy, milky opacity characteristic of the generous Citra hop charge. The thick, creamy head settles to a persistent collar with good adhesion to the glass. Fine carbonation contributes to a soft, pillowy visual presence.

◌ Aroma

Intense tropical fruit dominates the nose, with ripe mango and passion fruit taking the lead in a creamy, almost perfumed expression. A subtle floral note emerges beneath—the brewery identifies this as geraniol from the Citra variety—adding a delicate rose-like quality. Herbal undertones provide structural balance without overshadowing the fruit-forward character.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with soft, juicy tropical stone fruit and citrus, amplified by the beer's full body and creamy texture. Moderate bitterness at 60 IBU remains restrained and clean, integrating smoothly rather than asserting itself. The Citra hop profile sustains throughout the mid-palate without harsh edges or astringency.

◑ Abgang

The finish is medium in length, trailing away cleanly with lingering stone fruit notes and a whisper of herbal dryness. No harsh residue or excessive bitterness persists.
