Bench Brewing Citra Grove Dry Hopped Sour

Brettanomyces can do more than create barnyard flavours. It carries on working when a beer has been bottled and in this case turns the tangy grapefruit aroma of Citra hops into what Mark Horsley calls “a juicy pineapple bomb.” Despite the intense fruitiness, this beer (LCBO 557876, 500 mL, $6.95) finishes dry and the acidity is well under control—a great match for our Seared Salmon wth Citrus Slaw.
