Citra DDH Juice Bits

Featuring ripe tangerine, grapefruit, and apricot notes, Citra DDH Juicy Bits is the latest iteration in our DDH Juicy Bits series, an irresponsibly dry-hopped version of our popular New England-style IPA, featuring a huge citrus and tropical fruit hop character with a softer, smoother mouthfeel from the adjusted water chemistry, higher protein malts, and lower attenuation. For this batch, we dry hopped with nearly 4 lbs per bbl of our 2017 selected Citra hops, in addition to the normal dry hop schedule of Citra, Mosaic, and El Dorado, bringing the total hop rate up to over 7 lbs per barrel. We also extended the dry hop a touch longer and attenuated the beer a bit further, resulting in a fresh, bright hop character and pillowy mouthfeel.
