Description

Flavor & Aroma Profile
Citra is a dual-purpose hop that can be used in all hop additions throughout the brewing process.

The Citra hop is a high alpha acid hop with a strong, yet smooth floral and citrus aroma and flavor. It has specific aroma descriptors that include grapefruit, citrus, peach, melon, lime, gooseberry, passion fruit and lychee. These tropical fruit flavors have made Citra the most popular hop to craft brewers in the world.

Citra adds a smooth bitterness when added to the boil. This is due to Citra having a fairly high alpha acids percentage, while also having enough flavor and aroma to be considered an aroma hop.

Citra overtook Cascade as the most grown hop variety in 2018 and has yet to relinquish that title. Citra has redefined what could be expected out of a hop. It helped push IPAs to the forefront of craft brewing popularity with its extreme citrus flavors.
