Upslope Citra Pale Ale (355ml)

Upslope's signature product features a crisp grapefruit aroma from Citra hops and a juicy aroma like tropical fruit. A light, drinkable finish makes this a beer that you can easily have refills on.

As the name suggests, Citra Pale Ale is a beer that uses Citra hops as the main ingredient, and is characterized by a crisp grapefruit aroma and juicy tropical fruit aroma derived from the hops.

This flagship product was introduced in 2017 with a new recipe to replace "Upslope Pale Ale," the first product created when Upslope was founded.

When asked about replacing the brewery's first product with a new one, co-founder Matt Cutter said it was "a result of our creativity and experimentation."

According to him, "Citra Pale Ale is the result of honing our craft, continuing to look to the future, and responding to the demands of our fans."

The recipe for Citra Pale Ale is based on the Citra Pale Ale/IPA that we brewed in collaboration with homebrewer John Primozic as a professional/amateur beer at the 2014 GABF (Great American Beer Festival).

This Citra Pale Ale/IPA was a big hit in the taproom, so the recipe was tweaked and Citra Pale Ale was born.

"Toasty malt flavors and hop aromas of apricot and grapefruit make this an easy-drinking beer," says head brewer Sam Scruby.

The refreshing aroma of grapefruit is combined with the refreshing aroma of juicy orange and citrus, and there is also a faint caramel-like sweetness from the malt.

The taste is led by grapefruit, followed by orange, citrus and floral, with a nutty malt underpinning the whole.

Light bodied and easy to drink with a clean, crisp finish.

This is a beer that suits any occasion and will make you want to have another one any time.
