16 oz. bottle, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out huge dank, piney hops -- much more pungent than regular Pliny -- with a crisp biscuity malt base. Flavour is mega-dank, with plenty of piney hops, loads of dankness, and a dry biscuity malt base. Finishes dry, dank and piney. Excellent dank WCIPA as expected.

Draught at Monk's: pours gold with white head. Aroma is grapefruit, fleurs; crackers, light pine. Taste is slightly bitter, dry, but still very fruity.

I was told this was a Pliny the Elder not so strong. White fast vanishing white head. Full Hoppy aroma. Full Hop taste with a long finish
Day early for the local election but oh well. A bit hazy, golden yellow color, hoppy, fruity, nicely bitter. Citrus, florals, pine resin, some tropical fruit. Not your grandson's neipa. Smooth, surprisingly crushable, a very workable saunabeer. Excellent.
