bitterness units 65
malts Two-row Pale, & Crystal (start with 4% crystal I guess).

Re: SN Torpedo??
It's quite a dark beer, I would go with the dark crystal and use a fair amount.

Re: SN Torpedo??
Is that a copy paste?
I've read the SN website and a few recipes on various other forums but thought I'd ask on here to see if there was anything definitive.
Cheers

Re: SN Torpedo??
Yes I haven't seen Citra for sale anywhere although I'm definately after them after trying both Oakham Citra and Roosters Citra recently. Really tasty hop assuming both beers actually contain Citra.Borodave wrote:I dont think they're available over here yet
Anyway Citra is only in the dry hopping according to Sierra Nevada site so I would of thought you could get away not using it if its not available.

Re: SN Torpedo??
I had a beer at the Brew Wharf that used Citra - certainly has a lovely nose.
Re: SN Torpedo??
I have just ordered some Citra, along with Riwaka, Rakau, Motueka and NS from Craftbrewer in Auz.
Expensive, but time to try some of these when it cools down a bit!

Re: SN Torpedo??
farams had citra a few months ago, it didnt last long, i missed it by a few days 

Re: SN Torpedo??
you could always order some from the US. Citra Pellets are only $1.79 an ounce (which would convert to less than a fiver for 113g) from Rebel Brewer. I have no idea what shipping would be thou.
