Bunch of Citra

[Brew Cat]

I ended up with an awful lot of Citra hops in my freezer
I have a couple NEIPA recipes but really not in the mood for IPA lately
Any other ideas to use them up before they get old

You could probably go 100% Citra instead of the Citra/Mosaic combo

+1 to Wayner’s Pale Ale!

I used them as the only hops in a Blonde Ale once, came out really nice and grapefruit forward.
I also like them as a finishing dry hop in a Saison. But that would just be a dusting and wouldn’t really solve your overstock problem.

I don't know about a saison
I don't usually hop a saison

I've made lagers with C hops before but not Citra
Citra has a unique flavor

guess Ill do a few NEIPAs and have a party

thanks for the feedback

I did a 5%ABV Mexican lager with 1 ounce of Citra last year and it was great. I did about .25 Oz up front and the rest with about 5m left. Good lawnmower beer.

I have a similar problem, I accidentally double tapped an order of Citra so instead of 1, I got 2 POUNDS of it. Now down to 1 pound, 14 ounces. :-/

One of my favorite craft beers was called Sapling. They only used pilsner malt and Citra hops (they rotated the hops used each batch but Citra was my favorite). I've spent years trying to recreate it and have been unsuccessful

that looks interesting indeed
at 18 IBU I'm not sure its an IPA but that's what they call it
I was thinking I have the cream ale racked up to brew for my nephews graduation party
it"s a session at 4.5 ABV
it's 50% pilsner malt
I think I'll use some citra in there instead of cascade
