    I didn’t say it wasn’t. I said I’ve had other hazies that got canned last week. I don’t feel like double checking but I think one of them was Mirror Flexin’? Which I’ve definitely had before.

    Oh yeah. Those cans from last sales were good too. Not as good as their first online sales.

    Not beer related. Are you in charge of the Anna Karina fan club? And what is your favorite Anna Karina movie? sorry if this has been asked here before. Curious minds would like to know.

    Did a little blind taste test of these 4 hazies. Results were:

    1) Future History: great on the nose and palate. Big melon and tropical flavors (cantaloupe, mango, lychee, papaya)
    2) X-Jets: very one note of huge tropical citrus but it’s a damn fine note.
    3) Cosmic Jungle: passion fruit, orange, dank, herbs, greens. Galaxy for whatever reason leaves a vegetal after taste that is a little off putting for me lately.
    4) Mirror Flexin: still a great beer even for ranking it last. Too sweet and malty for me. Peachy, bubble gum.

    Planning to crack open a Vagabond later. Excited for that!

    Havent had the latest IPAs as I wanted to try that vagabond once @dcgunman made a delivery for our beer share but man o man was I glad to grab a 4 1/2 pack of that! I cant tell if its better cold or warm or both but every adjunct meshed so well and for me it was damn smooth AF for that abv. Once I can say that the cost of the 4 pack was well deserved, regardless if it was BA or not.

    Pierrot Le Fou is my favorite but I think Chinese Roulette is underrated. I like Vivre Sa Vie a lot too.

    I had Mirror Flexin' last night, and I have to say, that might be my favorite Casa beer I've had so far. I also cracked open a Vagabond Breakfast and it was the definition of decadent. I am super impressed with everything I've tried from them so far. I still need to try X-Jets from the last order, so I'm excited for that.

    Concrete Jungle is tasting as good as it gets with Casa A. I had X Jets the other night and that one was very good as well. Another great shipment from Oxnard. I put CA next to Revision as my go 2’s for hazy’s. With Rev still one over CA. I enjoy this style of hazy’s over GC’s and Monk’s because it’s less filling. I would like to see some more west coast from Casa A. The room with a view was enjoyable to good. I’m sure these guys can produce some quality west coast.

    Agree with you DC on almost everything. Your love for Revision though and them being on similar level as Casa I can’t get there on :slight_smile:. Must be my palate but Revision hazies have a very chalky taste and I find the cans really fall off quickly unless they are drank super fresh. Probably the steepest fall off I’ve seen. Revision west coast IPAs though I think are great. Their double WCIPA and single WCIPA are both things of beauty. Sad that lately we rarely see distribution of those in Vegas though.

    Revision is good for the price but yeah, I'd put them nowhere near the top personally.

    Tough to keep up after that 5 can drop last time but no way missing out on these :slight_smile:. Going to be one full fridge.

    The number of beers each release seems to have gone up. On their Instagram they were commenting on shifting the tasting room into a different section of building and relocating brewing into the old tasting room. Sounded like this would increase capacity. Not sure if that is already happening with these larger can releases though.

    Pre-pandemic I've enjoyed Casa Agria ipas at shares, so I went big and ordered one 4pk of each today. Hopefully I won't be disappointed!
