We work with a number of hop growers developing new strains, this is one of them. The keg I have now is from a 20 barrel test run at work. I got a pound or so to take home and homebrew with and Imma see what this bad boy does in the 80ibu range.MolBasser

We tapped a keg of Citra IPA at MBC tonight, 5 gallons gone in under two hours, with two other featured beers on tap. If it is as good as the last one, put me down for an 11 lb box.

[MolBasser]

Lot's of people like the catty (excuse me, grapefruit in their eyes and nose) aroma.We have made, through beer camp, some extremely catty beers (Hoptimum, Hopstar among others) that were well recieved by the the public that I cannot get to my mouth, much less drink.I just don't dig it.This new hop is awesome though.I can't wait to homebrew with it.MolBasser
