Citra Ass Down

Citra Ass Down is a brilliantly named double IPA from Louisville, Kentucky. Brewed by Against the Grain Brewery, the brew tilts the scale at a robust 8.2%. It comes in wacky 16 oz cans and pours a faintly hazy bronze under a cloud of cream-coloured head. The beer has a powerfully boozy aroma, with notes of tangerine. It’s a sweet, strong ale, with a flavour that is both juicy and a little floral. The back end is rich in citrus and evergreen hops.


Perhaps a bit too sweet, but Citra Ass down is a pretty substantial offering with a big flavour and some serious punch. If it were readily available to me, I bet this would be a frequent presence in my refrigerator.

Rating: 8.5 out of 10.
