awwillie@hotmail.com - August 20, 2015I can't say that it is better than the best IPA's I have had, but it is as good as the best. Perfectly balanced, nice bitterness
mkatz9267 - August 17, 2015Balanced malt and hops! You don't taste the 8% abv. Grapefruit, tropical fruit, pine and dank all combine in a lupulin symphony. Worth the hype and accolades!
Deandabeermachine - August 15, 2015What is it with these California breweries? I haven't had a bad beer yet! Wish I could get this on the east coast. :-(
bill@homebrewingnews.com - July 12, 2015Pliny is a decent hop bomb, but is highly over-rated. You can hide a lot of faults behind that many hops.
jmile - June 12, 2015How do you give less than 5 stars! Smooth balanced. Perfect manage of hops and malts
Dr Why - June 5, 2015First of all, I've never met an IPA that I liked. Don't like the bitterness of hops. Still true with this most famous IPA. But with the nice floral taste, IF I liked bitterness of hops, I would like this one . Most beer "connoisseurs" who rate on Beer Genie must be IPA lovers . OK, I get it.
ddgarcia@optonline.net - June 4, 2015This has the be one of the most balanced IPAs I've ever had. While I tend to like my IPAs a tad hoppier there was something speci about this brew.
Lex Luthor - May 28, 2015Great west coast style APA 4.5
I would have given this a five but being in Illinois you can't get this out here
danielrow82 - May 28, 2015It's alright.. A little over hyped but good. Its kinda like a richer "enjoy by"
