Ughh. I wish I knew what all the fuss was about. It tastes like I imagine what turpentine would taste like.

Overall, great beer. Very smooth, especially for a double IPA. Great mouth feel, leaves with a delicious aftertaste. I had this and a blind pig (Russian River's IPA). Surprisingly, Pliney was even smoother than the blind pig.

So after 6 months of trying to track down some bottles of the "All Mighty Pliny", I gave in and purchased 4 bottles for $50 plus s&h on eBay!! I had to taste it to see what the hype was about! Glad I made the purchase! A little pricey at $15 a bottle but being from NJ I'll prob never find it anywhere but eBay! To sum it up Pliny was worth the search and the money! Truly a work of art! AMAZING!!
