“ Pliny for President is a double dry-hopped version of our flagship Pliny the Elder double IPA, including one or two new hop varieties,” as described by the announcement on the RRBC website.
DOUBLE INDIA PALE ALE Pliny the Elder is brewed with Amarillo, Centennial, CTZ, and Simcoe hops. It is well-balanced with malt, hops, and alcohol, slightly bitter with a fresh hop aroma of floral, citrus, and pine.
By comparison, the triple-IPA Pliny the Younger , which previously had been sold only on draft, retails for about $10 a bottle at the brewery’s Santa Rosa and Windsor brewpubs. You can buy up to two bottles per day during the two-week window the beer is offered, from Feb.
Through all those packages I’ve come up with a few tips for success. Line Your Box with a Garbage Bag. Line the Sides of Your Box with Bubble Wrap. Wrap Individual Bottles with Bubble Wrap or Newspaper. Keep It Tight. Tape Every Part of the Box. Don’t Mail Beer in the Summer. Know the Rules.

Gaius Plinius Secundus (AD 23/24 – 79), called Pliny the Elder (/ˈplɪni/), was a Roman author, a naturalist and natural philosopher, a naval and army commander of the early Roman Empire, and a friend of emperor Vespasian.
From my experience Pliny will start of go south after about a month and a half. It will still lose some of the hop character in that time frame, but it’s not really noticeable until about month 2.
Double IPAs Also called “ Imperial ” IPAs, this uniquely American style takes the craving for hops and runs with it. These usually use double or even triple the typical amount of hops, but also add more malts to balance. The resulting beer has huge hoppy highs and deep malty depths with an high ABV to match.
Pliny the Elder After watching a few YouTube videos featuring employees from Russian River including co-owner/brewmaster Vinnie Cilurzo talk about the beer , “ Pliny ” (the beer ) is pronounced “Ply–Nee” where the “Ply” is pronounced like in the word plywood.
