Surly Xtra Citra Pale Ale

This beer from Surly Brewing Company of Minneapolis, Minnesota is simply labeled as a Citra Pale Ale. The descriptor given described it as “bright, citrusy and hoppy.” The color is pale orange with quite a bit of bubbles showing and not much of a head to speak of. Very mild tropical aromas. Citrusy taste is high on carbonation and hop and not a lot else going on. A bit one dimensional. Although not listed on the label, this is clearly a session due to its low alcohol and crisp profile. This is not a bad beer, just not one of my favorites.

Rating 7.8
