Citra Hops are one of the most iconic and in-demand American hop varieties, prized for their explosive aroma and juicy citrus character. Bursting with notes of lime, grapefruit, mango, and passion fruit, Citra is the foundation of countless IPAs, Pale Ales, and Hazy brews.
Thanks to its intense oil content and high alpha acid level, Citra is a go-to for late boil additions, whirlpool hopping, and especially dry hopping. Its flavor impact is bold, fruity, and unmistakably modern. Citra hops will give you punchy aroma and fruit-forward character in all of your favorite styles.
