Venn Batch #105 Citra Simcoe IPA

Venn Brewing Batch #105 Citra Simcoe IPA. 6.6% ABV. 40 IBU. Venn Brewing, Minneapolis, MN.

Cast in golden haze, under a brilliant ivory head, looking very nice.

In the nose: Bright citrus, touches of tropical, floral, fruity, slightly sweet.

In the mouth: Bold bitterness kicks it off on the palate, lively hoppiness tripping on the tongue, just the way I like it. Simcoe's doing it's usual thing, sharp and citrusy, piney, with the bright, juicy Citra sensations taking it on in tandem. Delightful stuff. Medium bodied, easy-drinking, and easy pleasing.

Another one knocked out of the park. Keep making these fine IPAs, Venn, and I'll keep coming back.

Juicy, tropical fruit, oranges.
An IPA featuring Citra and Simcoe.

Malts: White Wheat, Domestic Pale, Flaked Oats.
Hops: Citra, Simcoe.
Yeast: American Ale.
