    It's a rare one for sure, but from what I've heard a decent amount gets made each release. That server likely has an aged bottle cuz I know the most recent release doesn't have a value that high. I'm in the talks with someone who just messaged me on beerexchange to trade my FO for their bottle of Huna but I'm getting another strong plus from their end.

    It's definitely a really solid IPA, but it is incredibly over hyped. I could name at least 5 others that I think are way better than Pliny.

    I have to agree. It's readily available to me so I'm over the hype but it is a very drinkable imperial style IPA. But I prefer others as well.

    Ya, if he's had it for a while it's definitely got a high value. Florida has got some killer breweries so keep your eyes peeled down there

    It's an imperial stout brewed by Cigar City brewery called Hunahpu. They only brew it once a year, and as such it's in limited quantities so it's a pretty sought after beer in the craft world.

    How are they trying to destroy the craft beer industry. I thought the majority of their beer portfolio was comprised of importing mexican beer :notsure:

    I like Warsteiner, I like the Travelers Grapefruit Shandy, so a grapefruit Warsteiner should be mind-blowing, right? I'd rate it a "7/10" but the Travelers was better.

Shok Industries 2/0 big 4 upgrade and sound deadener.
    After their massive release of fruit based Sculpin lately I'd definitely say, at a minimum, they're trying too hard. However, their Orange Vanilla Fathom was pretty damn good. Then again it seems like everyone is coming out with a "cerveza" style light lager, whatever that's about I have no clue.

    Rocked some Carmel Hefe this weekend...in Carmel, CA. Decent but nothing to write home about as far as a hefe. If anyone is visiting the Bay Area or lives here check out Ale Industries in Oakland. Good people, chill vibe, and I've yet to find a beer I don't like there. They'll even let you try some of their untapped brews if you're there on a lucky night.

    Some brew my uncle brought me from Bellingham, WA. Tastes like it wants to be a hoppy pale but comes off rather malty. Not bad though20160801_203326.jpg
