    Agreed! I have a lb. in my freezer for upcoming brewdays. However, It doesn't remind me very much of Citra. It seems a lot of new hop varietals get described as having Citra characteristics... The Belma hop i've seen desc. as "Citra light" which is silly to me after brewing with it a couple times. It's more like a NZ hop, with lots of strawberry and melon notes, and very soft bitterness when used as an early kettle addition.

    Anyway, I'm rambling - psyched to try the NEBCO Mosaic beer today.

    I'll be there around 4 or 4:30. Unfortunately I think I'll have to leave before BA IST and Cherry Vanilla, but I guess Fuzzy Baby Ducks will have to keep me happy. #beergeekproblems

    Headed over for lunch (and Gold Stock) in a few minutes. Will be back in the late afternoon, but I'll be lucky to beat the rush - too much work to do :slight_frown:

    Damn, totally forgot about the prime event. I just drove down and past New Haven to Brandford and then back to Meriden. Pretty bummed that I'm gonna miss out on that cask of FBD.

    More than disappointed with Prime 16 tonight. Ordered two Cherry Vanilla Stout Troopers right at 9 and the waitress came back 20 minutes later saying it was gone.

    Wow, that is a damn shame. Sorry to hear that. Maybe better off going to the source in the next couple days. Did they at least have Fuzzy Babies on tap?

    holy shit Mosaic was good. Coffee IST in a bottle would be the dopest. Carbonation FTW.
