Big Schmidge
We took a step back and simplified this juicy ding dong. We kept the malt bill basic – Rahr 2 Row & Pilsner – and added one adjunct – Oat Malt. Then, we went all in with everybody’s favorite hop – CITRA. But wait, there’s more! While Citra is our favorite hop, it’s often quite soft and rounded. Sometimes, we think it needs a little bite with help from a sharper hop that’ll brighten it’s profile. Thus, we sprinkled in a tiny amount of Idaho 7 – to the tune of 12% of the entire hop bill. AND GUESS THE FUCK WHAT – IT WORKED! This is still a Citra beer, through and through – but those notes of tangerine, apricot, yellow peach, and ruby red grapefruit have a little more zing to them. You know what they say – sometimes you just need a schmidge to really go big. People say that. We swear.
