    I hope to get to try Toppling Goliath and Pliny the Elder one day, heard and read both are phenomenal so I’m jealous of anyone that gets to have those regularly. 

    Toppling Goliath makes really good IPAs. But, and to be perfectly honest, they brew inside a particular box and rarely venture outside of it. If and when you can get it I recommend the DDH varietals of the King Sue and Pseudo Sue. 

    As for Pliny I can walk into my local Whole Foods or specialty liqour store and find it on a regular basis. I bought it recently along with the DDH Elder to do a side by side. I prefer the DDH, which I have had on tap previously,  but it is not a regular release. If and when you find Russian River look for Blind Pig as well.

    TG also makes the best non-BA stout ever and a crazy amount of terrific BA stouts.

    pliny’s all great. Agree on blind pig…very good. I also agree in that for the most part, for my taste, DDH versions are always better.

    Went in to my local bottle shop, which I do rarely, and they had these sitting in the cooler...

    I believe this is the proper use of the 👀 emoji.
