Ārpus Brewing Co. DDH Enigma X Citra Pale Ale

Overview

This DDH Pale Ale focuses entirely on two complementary hop characters: Enigma's white grape and stone fruit meet Citra's classic citrus and tropical notes. At 5.5% ABV it remains fresh and sessionable, while the double dry-hop delivers an explosive aroma.

Tasting Notes

On the nose, expect white grape, grapefruit and a hint of pineapple. The palate combines juicy citrus with subtle peach and passionfruit undertones. The mouthfeel is creamy without being heavy, thanks to the addition of oats. The finish stays fruity with a light, dry bitterness that invites another sip.

Serving

Serve at 6-8°C in a tulip glass to maximize hop aromatics. Pairs well with grilled chicken with mango salsa or spicy shrimp tacos.
