4.8 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20Perfect except for the chill haze (maybe it is just this bottle though). Earthy aroma and spruce flavor. This beer lingers on the tongue for quite some time so as not to be forgotten.

Hazy orange-gold with a moderate white head. Subtle blend of grapefruit, citrus, peach, and pale malt in the aroma. Hoppy, mild bitterness, and medium-bodied. A clean, crisp finish with little alcohol presence.

Finally got to try the legend, and boy did it live up to the hype.Amazing aroma of fresh cut grass, light hay and pine on the nose. Taste is sweet at first then builds in complexity with multiple taste layers on the back end. Awesome!

Golden pour. Huge tropical fruit and citrus aroma. Medium bodied, actually surprisingly light given the alcohol. Quite impressive. A looong lingering piney bitterness. Great depth and complexity.
4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
Bottle from big johns market. Pours a very clear golden, light orange color with a quickly dissipating off white head. Aroma is a beautifully pungent blast of piney, citrusy, tropical fruit hops with a mild caramel malt background and a hint of alcohol. Taste is quite bitter with strong citrusy hop character and a mild fruity sweetness. Bitterness lasts long into the finish, leaving behind fruity notes. Top 50 beer for a reason. Spot on. Always a good day to be drinking a Pliny.
4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle. Pours a clear bright gold. Medium white head with decent retention and lacing. Smells of strong pine and grapefruit, medium pineapple, subtle malt and yeast, boozey but very tangy. Taste is explosive, pine, grapefruit, pineapple, a balance of malt but hop heavy. Insanely smooth finish. High carbonation but slightly silky. Incredible.

I guess I’m officially not a big IPA guy. The citrus aroma is awesome! The pour is very cool orange w/ a thin white head that leaves some lacing. The taste is a good balance between citrus & hops. The beer is quite smooth at 100 IBUs. It’s very, very good!
4.8 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 20/20
Lots of grapefruit, citrus and tropical fruity hops in the nose. Pours a nice light copper with a good clarity and a hefty head that leaves after a minute. The taste is a hop explosion of citrus and pine with a dry malt back bone that is not very sweet allowing the hops to assault you up front. Very smooth bitterness with a dry mouth feel. Overall this beer lives up to the hype. Taste great every time, never get tired of my pliny!
