hype can alter a lot of things - good movie, beer, restaurant.

taste is like the 3rd or 4th sense we use to actually judge something (or something like that).

my first bottle of pliny I rated as a 4.5/5. i was a little let down as well. my brain unreasonably over-hyped it so when it didnt cure cancer and male pattern baldness on the first sip, i was a little let down.

now that I had a few more bottles, it is 6/5. a 10/5. there is this magical malty piney after effect that just lingers on my lips and taste buds for a few seconds after a sip. the after-sip of a pliny is amazing.

i need to find a better connect. i need to buy in volume without quantity restrictions.

mike - are you on untappd? if so, send me a friend request if you want - im "craigismyfirstname" or perhaps my full name just appears. im not sure.
