brewbaker - February 28, 2013Good flavor. But a little too dry hop finish. Wish it was sweeter like Younger
SonOfKorhal - February 22, 2013GRAPEFRUIT!
That's the first impression you get with Pliny, but fear not there is plenty of complexiy to this brew to make you desire more and more the more you drink. The largest asset to Pliny is that it has perfectly balanced mouthfeel. Not to dry, not to hoppy, not too grainy, perfectly balanced. Very fruity motifs however, so if you don't like fruitier extracts you may not enjoy. Very hard to find, snatch as many as you can as often as possible.
livengood.greg@gmail.com - February 20, 2013Very well balanced and great beer overall
Hops are complex but not too bitter and pungent
Color is a nice opaque gold
Great lacing on the glass
JonDSki - February 18, 2013Absolute flood of the best hops I've ever had, without the bitter! So complex you don't know how they do it! There isn't another beer that's even close, it's that unique.
ericandrew001 - February 16, 2013Finally got a bottle and must say this lives up to the hype. Perfect balance, mouth feel, and taste. One of the best beers I've had.
