Pliny the Younger sightings 2012

The party got started this morning in Santa Rosa. Where else is it on tap?

  1. Several locations in SF Bay: http://sfbeerweek.org/schedule The word is that the distributors will be picking up the kegs from Vinny on 2/5/12, after which it should be appearing in taprooms.

    1. Barclay's in Oakland will be tapping a keg this Friday.

        I hate to report (officially) that this is NOT the case. I will be posting here and on our twitter feed when we get ready to tap. I will try to give 12 hours notice.

        Thanks,

          NEWSFLASH! We scored an extra PtY, yes that one Pliny the Younger. We will tap it TONIGHT at 6PM SHARP and drink it till it goes (fast!)

          P.S. Don't tell anyone...

            All 186 tickets were given out, each for half a pint. If you're reading this message now, you will have missed out.

              More Younger! We tapped our second keg this morning at 10 AM to a full house. Should last to early afternoon. Then, it's on to next year... :(

      2. The Elder is at The Sleeping Lady in Fairfax

        1. Apparently it's available at mini bar in SF tonight.

            Thanks for the tip. There were only 4 glasses left in the keg when I arrived.

          2. Try the Bistro in Hayward

            1. Lafayette PArk Hotel tapped a keg last night (according to Facebook) - I wasn't able to make it this year on short notice. Last year it was a very low key affair. I guess it is a good job I have a trip planned up to Santa Rosa on Monday for a taste.

              1. A keg of the Younger is supposed to be tapped at 4th Street Bar and Grill at 4PM!
