    I tried to zoom in on this pic I took last Thursday and can't tell if it was. I didn't even think about it, I was just happy to get the bottles.

    If anyone knows about remaining bottles left out east (Azusa, etc.) can you let me know? Love to get some

    It is very rare that Noble fills growlers outside their flagship beers like Big Whig, Breakaway, etc. Maybe a handful of times a year you can pick up a "special" growler fill.

    This is correct. I really like Noble, but am disappointed that they don't offer growler fills of more of their beers.

    Just opened up the one bottle I picked up yesterday. As a midwest native visiting family in LA for the week, I am happy to add my two cents- that this beer lives up to the local hype. It certainly bests Pipeworks Citra Ninja and Hill Farmstead Double Citra, though I've never had Kern Citra.

    I would say not nearly as good as Toppling Goliath Pseudo Sue, however. (in terms of all-citra beers)

    Tough to compare an 8.8% DIPA to a 5.8% Pale.

    Like FrogOut69 notes, that's a different beast in of itself given that pseudoSue is an APA.
