Citra IPA Tasting...
Scoring of the Citra IPA tonight. Nice head with pour, like the golden / coppery color.
Aroma - Tropical fruit notes, honey - 8/12
Appearance - Like the color, clear, good head retention - 3/3
Flavor - Little bitter through the finish, nice balance otherwise - 8/12
Mouthfeel - Full, rich - 3/5
Overall - 7/10
29/50 - Decent, I like the hop smell and flavor but don't like the overall hop distribution / balance. Would take away a little from the bittering addition and split it up with the flavor / aroma additions. The malt bill works well for this hop, just a hint of sweetness, not too malty.
