Its still fucking awesome. The imports I've had where weak sauce compare to drinking it in San Diego. Had it a bunch of times on keg in various locations and then bottles as fresh as 4 days old.
Great video guys, I got to try it at Love & Beer 2024, thanks to Bucket List Beers. It's absolutely stunning, it took me right back to the beers that started me on Craft Beer and home-brewing. For all of its impactful BIG flavours, it's so accessible because it's so wonderfully structured, all of the individual elements somehow manage to stand out whilst playing well together.
Someone on your Instagram post compared this to carling and carlsberg and I can’t get my head around that statement. This is a bucket list for me, one day I will get out to Russian River
They themselves distribute it outside of California. Right from their website, California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Colorado, Pennsylvania, and Maine. I know the guys that get it in Maine, and they get a supply of it about every quarter, and doesn't last long. Usually Pliny, Blind Pig, STS, & Pliny for President (only available in an election year, and changes every election cycle). The latest Brew Your Own magazine had an interview with Vinnie, and he shared 5 gal recipes from a handful of their brews, Blind Pig and Pliny being a couple of them. Pliny has a very simple malt bill, 94% 2 row, 6% Dextrose. Hops are Warrior at the beginning of the boil, Amarillo & Cascade at 15mins left in the boil. Amarillo, Simcoe, & Centennial in the whirlpool, Simcoe, Citra, Crystal, Amarillo, & Chinook in the dry hop. 19l gal batch, ends up being a whopping 356 grams of hops throughout the process, resulting in about 97IBUs of bitterness. Vinnie pronounces it Pl - eye - ny, good enough for me.
@planetbeertv lol, I only just read the magazine and put the recipes into my Brewfather logs, so it was fresh in my mind. Place in Maine gets them in about every 3 months, and I always manage to miss it. Last time was by mere days
