    Maybe Noble will keep on going as if nothing is happening? Maybe they are fine the way they are. I still stop in Noble when I go see a Angels or Ducks game. Or a concert at the Grove. True, their beers are not what they were once before all this haze craze thing came into play. Who knows why these guys have changed their game plan. They are still better than their 1st year in the business. But the glory days for Noble was when Evan & Brian was there. I hope they can change for the better again. Or maybe Green Cheek can buy them out? A better location and parking for GC. All though GC is getting ready to expand at their location already.

    Noble...lost the most talented head brewer they ever had.
    Noble....disasterous repackaging/branding.IMHO.
    Noble...not only stopped brewing fan faves but when the tried to revise those they resembled nothing close to the OG recipes.
    Noble...perhaps on their scale they over extended on their expansion as well.

    Food for thought,

    Cheers,

    Don’t forget that they also just lost a brewer to Monkish.

    I'm sure it will be Citra Showers in name only and nothing like the hop nectar from years prior.

    Would love to be wrong though.

    They’ve postponed this release twice already. Maybe 3rd time’s a charm?

    Yeah, but they'll have a much later canning date (do they date their cans?) once they're canned so they'll still be "fresh."

    Honestly this has always been one thing I don't understand. We talk about how "old" a beer is based on it's canning or bottling date, but why don't we take into consideration how long it's been finished and just sitting in a tank. Does beer not age in there? Is there a reason that doesn't count? Honest question.
