Drinks Picks: 4 PINES Citrus IPA

4 Pines Citrus IPA

Distributed by: 4 Pines Brewing Company

RRP: $9

4 Pines Brewing Company has released its latest small batch release, Citrus IPA, which joins the breweries Keller Door limited-edition range.

Citrus IPA is 7% ABV, produced after the surprising popularity of its 8% Imperial India Brown Ale.

The release has been timed and produced with summer in mind, encompassing seasonal flavours and aromas, while its label depicts a childhood Dr. Seuss like illustration, reminiscent of childhood memories of summer holidays.

Tasting notes: On the nose, aromas are full bodied and hop-driven, with notes of fresh bloody orange, grapefruit and lime. While the palate has been created to “hit you in the face” like summer, with an aggressive bitterness and a slight mouth-puckering zestiness.
