    Tried this for the 1rst time. It was good, but the flavors didn't "pop". Does anyone know if this is ongoing or was it a one time release?

    There has been a few different releases of Sparkle Muffin thus far. I liked the ones i have from the second batch, but haven't tried it recently...

    I have 1 can left from two 4pks I bought a few weeks back here in the OC area. It was the second time purchasing Sparkle Muffin. I thought this batch was excellent. I just wish I had it in the Hello Kitty glass. It would of tasted even better. :blush:

    Holy cow. I want to echo the sentiments of this Elevation Calculation. Delicious. Narrowly beating out Battle of the Lords as my favorite Revision so far.

    I didn't notice it when I grabbed the cans fresh last week...so opened one for science. I'd agree its definitely perceivable, more so on the taste than the nose for me personally. Boo

    I haven’t read anything about Citra City here. I thought it was pretty damn good on draft at the Source. And same with crowler I had 10 days ago. Will be opening my last crowler this weekend. Haven’t seen any 4pks in the neighborhood yet.

    Looks like Citra City was just released in cans AT the Reno Brewery on 10/26.

    Might not see it in the bottle shops in Norcal until later this week. Maybe the following week for SOCAL.

    Looking forward to trying it.

    Drinking a Plantary Fog for the first time (thanks to @AllHopsMatter). This is pushing into the top 5 fav Revision category for me.

    What's your take on the differences?

    Is there a difference between those two aside from the can artwork?

    I'm wanted to get a sixer of their new doubled up dipa cans but quick pick on hillsdale SJ was seriously ripping off trying to charge $23, I asked is this a mistake and lady said no.

    I believe the can on the left (white) was their 1 year anniversary of RaF cans? @atomicpunk5151?

    Just had a Citra City finally, and it's really really good. A little sweetness from the lactose, but the aroma is off the charts, and the Citra comes through very strong. The lactose infused beers are pretty hit or miss for me, but this one is a definite "hit".
