    I'm hoping so too. I feel like the plethora of good citra-hopped beers has dulled Abrasive's demand a little bit (which is a good thing). I would imagine that once Todd the Axe Man has been out a little longer, demand will tail off, at least a little.

    But I love citra and both the aforementioned beers, so I'm a little biased by my desire to have easier access to them.

    I got some on Saturday from South Loop Binny's it was in the back.

    It's really good, reminds me a lot of Hop Juju. I want to compare the two of them and see if I can tell the difference.

    Hopefully the head doesn't give it away.

    I saw it at a Whole Foods near me yesterday, so I'd imagine the various WF stores have it right now.

    Multiple 4-packs still available at Liquor Park as of 20 minutes or so ago.

    I didn't look or ask about dates as I bought a 4-pack (from a different shop) last weekend. I just happened to notice some in the cooler and on the shelf as I was shopping for some other stuff. I'm sure you could call him.

    did anyone notice a big difference between the 2/12 and the 3/2 batches? the second batch doesn't seem to have the reddish yeast floating and is not as sweet.

    I didn't have the 2/12 batch but had it on tap in December and the 3/2 batch was not as sweet as I remembered.
