Lady and gentlemen,

I present to you Pliny the Elder. Second only to Pliny the Younger. Both of which are two of the most sought after beers in the world.

They do it perfectly.  Keeping it as a limited release keeps the demand sky high.  If it was available all the time, it'd become another Stone Ruination.  A GREAT and BIG IPA but since it was available all the time, the demand slipped.  It was no longer special.  Stone recently announced they were discontinuing it.

These 2 beers are the Unicorns in my book. Hard for me to pick which one I like best. Honestly never had Pliny though. Brewed a clone but I don't know how close it was to the real thing. Haha

 

I love, love, love DFH 120 but IMO it doesn't bottle well.  I no longer even both paying the $10+ for a 12oz. bottle simply because it's not a good representation of the beer.  That's one that really needs to be scored fresh on tap... preferably poured through Randall the Enamel Animal.

I did enjoy it on draft a little better. I had it last May at the Brew Pub in Delaware. I didnt try World Wide Stout on draft. It was not availble. It is delish in the bottle though. I baught those 2 - 4 packs from the brewery when I went. They were $36 per 4 pack. I have one of each left that I have been aging. Probably going to pop them open soon though. Getting tired of waiting. Haha

      D. Morgan on T-Mac: “I made the decision pretty early [January]

      By ECHornet · Posted

      Cheers OP. I wanted TMac to be the pick and was so excited, and surprised, when his name was called.    Last year, I wanted one of the Xaviers, Worthy or Legette. So Dan has been delivering on my wish lists. Now I hope it pays off over the next few years.    With our trade up last year into the first, we could have a dynamic WR duo on cost-controlled contracts for 4 years.

      Panthers sign Hunter Renfrow

      Yea I have it.  When it flares it can be very severe.  I had an extended hospitalization a couple years ago and it took a while to recover.  Can’t imagine trying to deal with that as a pro athlete.  It’s hard enough as a desk jockey.

      Before Shadeur Sanders there was Ryan Mallet

      By lightsout · Posted

      I think the difference is that The Golden Calf of Bristol and Cam were just big personalities with big time talent (The Golden Calf of Bristol just lacked any consistency, leading to most of us hating him because it felt like he pulled big plays out of his ass). Sanders is a good talent who is completely full of himself and the ego feels unearned. You should WANT to change the bad culture of the losing franchise you expect to go to as a top pick...but that's a thing you keep to yourself or articulate well enough that it doesn't come off as "we're doing poo my way, if you don't like that, don't draft me".  You don't create an entire room touting yourself as legendary when you did absolutely nothing legendary at the collegiate level. Nobody is going to be fondly remembering Shadeur Sanders the college QB. Johnny Football is there, Cam is there, Vince Young is there, RGIII is there, The Golden Calf of Bristol is there.   Sanders needs humility and to pry himself away from his father. His father is going to tank his career before it is even started.    Sanders may bounce around the league as a backup for a few years, he'll play in select games and look like a backup but he'll have that one game where he pops off and that game will be used to say "see?! He's great!" and then he'll get the start and never live up to that game again.
