    I didn’t think this Citra Showers batch was terrible. It was good. Not great like the og batches. I preferred it over enjoy by 7-4-18. I think it was a bit more on the malty side.
    Would love pick up another 4pk? No.

    Not sure why I’m bumping this almost dead thread.
    Mosaic Showers 4pks.
    Anybody gets there hands on this one? At $6 a cans! Come on man. :rage::nauseated_face: That’s absurd. World Champ cans are a much better deal. What’s wrong here? :no_mouth:

    With all due respect, Noble is dead to me. IMHO they resemble a rudder-less ship.

    Had it on draft. It was...fine? Also it seems like there might be SOME progress to the expansion? I don't know, man.

    Hasn’t this been their price always been $6 for singles? The 4pack is $19. I think I also complained about their can pricing originally and got sh** for it. I think their price is high, but I don’t think it has changed, maybe I’m wrong though.

    I remember they were doing hazy canned releases once a month. Whatever happened to that?

    I’ve given up on Noble some time ago for pretty much all the above reasons listed reasons like, prices, brewers jumping off the sinking ship, beer availability, dump of a location etc etc. I loved the old naughty sauce days of old as a porter / stout fan and still love Big Wig, and “Are we having fun yet”, but sadly the last 4 times I’ve been out in Anaheim none the beers were available so I just keep going further up to BL to get my growlers filled.

    Not sure if the owner is still a lawyer named Steve, but as long as he is it’s doubtful much will ever change. Bottom line is if the owner isn’t “invested” into the business as a brewmaster, manager or serves as some type of active job it’s just an investment and as long as he can piddle a few bucks from his investment why would anything ever change?

    The only way Noble will ever become a major player is if he sells to either a big shop who will take it to a next level or the lawyer dies and his family sells it to someone who actually drinks beer and know how to run a successful brewery.

    This is why BL has so much more success over Noble http://bottlelogic.com/our-crew/

    On top of their can release they are also releasing a Shower Series Collab with El Segundo Brewing Company. I'm hoping the cans are as legit as 48k and all time goat...

    No cans as far I can tell. Bombers only?

    Regular Double Platinum was my favorite hazy IPA of theirs. But I didn't like DDH 48k as much as 24K, so not confident DDH DP will be an improvement.

    Not interested in their ddh DP. Bring back the OG Shower series in cans. Expand. Drop the $$$ down to $$. I will buy a bomber or 2. But that’s it for me. To much other better ipa’s out there.
