From http://revbrew.com/whats-new/event-detail/citra-hero-release Citra Hero, the newest member in our Hero Series of specialty IPAs, hits draft lines and shelves on June 25. Citra Hero is available on draft at our brewpub and taproom, and is also available in 22-ounce bottles for purchase from our tap room and other retailers. We are also releasing Solitaire on June 25, an easy-drinking Belgian-style single ale only available on draft at the brewpub and tap room. Can't wait for this to hit distro!
I think I bought bottle #1 the other day at the brewpub. Ha. Got there right as they opened. It was a happy accident. To answer your question, no, I have not tried it yet. Their last two Hero releases have been amazing, so I don't see why Citra would be any different.
Picked some up at Archer Liquors a couple of days ago. Really enjoyable. I am going to grab a couple more when I get the chance. I haven't had too many of the Revolution beers, but it might be my favorite of the 'Hero' beers I've tried.
I bought a couple from La Primera on Tuesday to drink during the US game. Liked this a great deal...very tropical nose and a balanced palate. It's a tamer version of Citra Ninja...less alcohol, less sweetness, and not as viscous. I think Revolution hit this one out of the park.
Really stupid question but will this still be available in 2-3 weeks? I'm heading to Chicago July 18 and would love to try this
Based on past "Hero" releases from Rev I would be willing to bet that this will most definitely be around in 2-3 weeks. However, this "Hero" release has that magic word "Citra" in it so I really don't know how long it will last. If I were you I would check back here a few days before you come to town.
thanks man. if i miss out, i miss out. i am not one to wait in line or stress over a beer, because ultimately, it's a beer. there's plenty of delicious beers out there so. i just hope i can grab some on draft if i don't stroll across it at binny's. thanks again, it is appreciated.
