    I'm not a brewery but could it be a reasonable assumption that something wasn't right so they dumped the first attempt and started a second?

    Edit: I'm also not a brewer

    Delay wasn't because of the beer.

    If you go by untappd it's a 4+ for this batch of Citra Showers. I am going to "try" and stop by this weekend and try it myself. But the good ole days of the shower series were the best.
    Citra Showers (8.8%) @ $19 4pk or CitraHolic (7%) @ $13 4pk.

    No brainer, Citraholic all day, I wouldn't take a chance after what I've had from the current run of Shower Series.

    Cheers,

    Or...you can drop by Green Cheek today for a double can release including Radiant Beauty, a damn nice West Coast-style IPA.

    Actually, Noble & GC are so close - why not pick up both beerses? It's a looong weekend.

    I remember my first Citra Showers... late 2013 - I walked out of the bar like I was King Kong and I actually got the girl. Rated the son of a gun 4.74. Tried this latest version tnough and found it too syrupy - Raul was not a fan.

    Over the last few months I also found Tounge Tickles to be a shell of its former self, and please don’t bring up those Aim for the Nets/Fences beers - awful. At least Naughty Sauce is still on point. I’ve moved on to GC though; only thing I don’t like about them is the location.

    I hear ya Raul, those were amazing beers back then. The stuff coming out of there now is a shell of its former greatness. Question for you though, how did you not give the OG Citra Showers a 4.75 I MEAN A 4.74 !!!! RU KIDDING ME:wink:

    Cheers,

    damn not getting that from the last can I drank which was about a week ago. I'm use to haze so switching to WC once ina while might have effected my pallet then again I'm not too picky when it comes to WC ipas. HAZE is another story #HazeBro
