Eddyline Brewery Debuts Newest Seasonal, Summer in the Citra

Eddyline Brewery out of Buena Vista, Colorado has announced the release of a new summer seasonal beer called Summer in the Citra, based on one of the starring hops in the Double Dry Hopped IPA.

Featuring New Zealand Motueka Hops and American Ctira varietals, this lightly bitter IPA features all the juicy, tropical hop elements of all the finest DDH IPAs in the modern craft beer scene.

The full release from Eddyline is below.

Summer in the Citra, Eddyline Brewery’s latest seasonal release is now available across Colorado.   The beer was an original creation by Eddyline founder Mic Heynekamp and first brewed at their New Zealand location.

 “We wanted to combine unique New Zealand aroma and flavor hops like Moteuka, with American ingenuity and an aggressive profile of Citra hops." Says Heynekamp.

The beer, a smash hit at their New Zealand brewpub, has been brought home to Colorado. This marks the first time a beer from their New Zealand location has been brought Stateside.

 “Summer in the Citra is bright and well balanced and is ready to   take its place alongside our other hop forward beers. With 4 lbs   of hops per barrel, we adjusted the water chemistry to decrease  the bitterness of the hops, while allowing their floral character to   shine.”  Heynekamp explains.

 The beer will be the first to show off their new branding, with a   fresh new look.  

 “This will just be a teaser for the new direction of our brand.  We   have had a great 2018 so far, and we are looking forward to   sharing a few Citra’s with our friends across Colorado and New   Zealand.” Says Heynekamp.

 Look for the cans across Colorado in Eddyline’s signature 16oz Tallboy 6-packs and for limited draft at your local beer bar or restaurant.
