It had been a few years since I last tried Blind Pig, so I decided to order a pint last weekend while I was at the brew pub. I really liked it and picked up a few bottles to take home. It's similar to Pliny in that it's light bodied and very hoppy in both flavor and aroma. The ABV is slightly lower and overall I would say that it has more of a "dank" hop flavor.

Well done sir. Try the Preon 2 by Foursevens if you ever have the chance. Great little piece.

Sorry for change of subject.

Very nice! Have you tried the Lawson's Double Sunshine IPA?

I cracked open one of the Heady's last night and shared with a couple of friends. Good stuff man! It smells and tastes like a hopped up DIPA at first, but has an nice sweet quality as well. It really is unlike any other DIPA out there. I really enjoyed it.

Yeah Heady Topper is completely unique, nothing else like it out there, over 100 IBU's but it's smooth, and surprisingly floral, with notes of grapefruit and pine. It's a great hop-bomb!!

Gonna try the Pliny on Saturday, have a big wine and beer event with friends and it will be center stage!!

I've had just about all of the Lawson's liquids, they make some really great beers!

I just can't enjoy a glass of beer when it's this cold outside.
