  • Here is another Citra single hopped pale ale, which has gotten some good reviews in the Finnish beer community. It is also readily available in larger K-Supermarkets and K-Citymarkets (here in Finland), so it should be easy to find if you want to try it out. Note: The picture above makes the beer seem darker and redder than it really is.

    [easyreview title=”Oakham Citra” cat1title=”Appearance” cat1detail=”The beer has a pale yellow-golden color and is slightly hazy. The beer has a slight white head, that leaves a little lacing along the glass.” cat1rating=”3″ cat2title=”Smell” cat2detail=”The beer has a smooth fruity and floral aroma, featuring tropical fruits and citrus. Definitely a lot of typical Citra aroma. Not much maltiness in the aroma.” cat2rating=”3.5″ cat3title=”Taste” cat3detail=”The flavour is full of sweet, floral and fruity Citra hops. There is some mango, orange and lemon, that combine with a light and sweet maltiness. The flavour finishes quite dry with a very slight bitterness and some fruitiness.” cat3rating=”4″ cat4title=”Mouthfeel” cat4detail=”The beer has a quite light body with a low level of carbonation. The beer is very easy to drink and refreshing.” cat4rating=”4″ summary=”The beer is great showcase of the fruity Citra hop, and a very refreshing beer. It isn’t super hoppy, bitter, or malty, but a well balanced session beer that’s light and tasty.”]
