    My take, having had Trillium and Tired Hands stuff I'd put them close, but just a teeny bit lower. And I've definitely liked some recipes (e.g. Planetary Fog, Smoke n Mirrors) far more than others (e.g. Glitter Moon, Social Fermentation).

    Granted you asked about haze, but their West Coast IPAs are outstanding for my palate and preferences.

    I've been really impressed by the beer coming from these guys. Revision quality? Hell no (not yet?), but you wont be disappointed with them. They have hazy and cans as well.

    We’re here for the 4th,
    Brought some bottles of fun, and hoping to find other stuff to drink here and take home (San Diego area).

    Surprised to see Moonraker hasn't been mentioned in this list. Only in the foothills but right off of 80 on the way to Truckee/North Lake.

    They consistently pump out top tier cans and have an stellar tap list with many available for growler/crowler fills.

    Rolled through on my way to the airport last week. Their NEIPAs are definitely solid. Appreciate the insight; will be picking up cans next year without question.

    Hey guys!

    Back again to ensure I've got a solid landscape for the 4th Tahoe trip. Definitely planning to hit up Revision this year. Are there any other spots that have spring up/stepped up over the last year? Thanks again!

    Like @OTB said....stock up at Revision. Several cans and crowlers to go. And yes don’t miss Revision. Everything is $5 a pour. And cheap to go $ on their 4pks and crowlers.

    Thanks much! Just visited their site to see what they have canned; not very clear. Any idea where I can locate this info outside of piecing it together from IG posts?

    Check their latest IG post or I would say your best bet is to message them directly on IG. My last visit I messaged them 2 days before flying up and and they messaged back the day before I went. They’ll have a minimum of 5 different 4pks available not including their 6pk of IPA and DIPA cans. And don’t skip on their Revenge series bombers in the cooler. I believe Citra Revenge is still on. Probably the best deal $ on the west if your looking for some great hazy and clear west coast ipa’s. Plus the brewery/tasting room is huge. I may just fly up on the 4th (if their open) to bring back some cans for the evening pleasures.

    Edit: They use to have on the website all the cans and bottles available to go with prices. I guess the did away with that. It was easy for me to see before I went. Wish they’d put it back on.

    Agree with your edit. Cant be any more challenging to update the cans list when they're updating what's on draft.
