    Ran an FT:ISO post yesterday to give away a couple of Citras with one main requirement - be one of the first two people to BM me after 3 pm.

    No less than 30 BAers slapped me a message that was received in this brief 60 second window. Much Citra love out there - now if Kern River can only find the space to brew more! Thanks to everyone who responded.

    Anyhew, our mighty winners are:


    greghochsprung and cfh64 - Come on down!

    That sucks, I won't have it until next week, otherwise I'd be down for sharing it. After all it is a gift from another generous BA and if it weren't from him, I wouldn't have it at all so why not "share the love". Plus I always have a few other beers to share. Let me know next time your in town.

    Before ya'll get the idea that I'm a swell guy or sumpin', I must interject here that I'm currently sitting at Krbc with a pint of citra in one hand and a pint of cask citra jalapeno in the other. It does not suck to be me right now.

    Bastid! I'm sitting at BJ's right now ( it's next to my local scott trade office, don't hold it against me) drinking a nit wit. It's aight but I'd rather be home drinking a Citra. Can't wait for next week! Well, enjoy your citra while I sit here with my nitwit :slight_smile:. Cheers!

    Just wanted to say thanks to Frank one last time. The box arrived safe and sound yesterday. In addition to the Citra he threw in a LA Judgement Day. It wasn't easy waiting while Citra cooled down but it was well worth it. I know IPA's are so subjective depending on the hops used, personal tastes, etc but this was the best DIPA I've ever had.

    The only bad thing about trying it is now I'm fiending for more and will be forced to trade for it next time its released.
