Crut's Cuties
American India Pale Ale Brewed with Tangerines and Oranges
An orange colored India Pale Ale with an awesome effervescence loaded with bright tangerine aromas and compliments of floral hops. The addition of California Clementines provides initial flavors of big tangy citrus, refreshing the palate, before a medium sized bitterness takes hold. A light dryness is created in the finish as the hop bitterness increases slightly between tastes.

Origin Story
Similar to OMGWTFBBQ, this beer was originally tested as a home brew, prior to moving it along to a much larger Bellaire batch size. According to Curt (aka Crut): "Cruts Cuties came about while designing a new home brew in the garage. I'm a big fan of citrusy IPAs and just happened to have a box of "cuties" (tangerines) at home, so out came the zester and juicer, and I went to work on them. I knew I wanted something citrusy, not a super hoppy IPA, but enough hops to compliment the citrus." The first attempt at brewing Crut's Cuties in Bellaire unfortunately did not turn out as expected, but thanks to the perseverance of the Bellaire brew team, a second batch was created and will be available just in time to see summer off on a fun fruity hoppy note!Hops
