Well here’s another big one folks! We’ve got Russian River Pliny the Elder!
Style: Double IPA
Container: 500mL Bottle
Glassware: Balloon glasses
Overall Nerdsense Rating: 3.75/5

We have a special treat for everyone this week! Mike and I go behind the camera and MC what very well be the greatest blind taste on the entire internet!!! Just kidding, but we do have a blind taste test that we found pretty fun to record and think it’ll be fun to watch.
Mike and I didn’t think it was fair to do this blind taste test ourselves as we could easily pick out the two since we’ve had Heady so much and the taste is extremely different. Instead of comparing the two which is like comparing apples to oranges these days, we thought we’d bring in a panel of outside judges.
We have (from left to right in the video) my lovely girlfriend, Kerry, Melanie from Melly Mel’s Cookin and our semi-frequent guest and Mike’s brother, Josh.
All 3 of them did a blind taste test about a year ago. Kerry and Melanie chose Pliny and Josh Picked Heady. Let’s see what they pick this time.
Hope you guys enjoy!
