pliny the elder extract

[redarmy990]

Made a pliny extract from AIH, used white labs 001 in a yeast starter.

Brewed on Sunday, had to put on a blow off tube Monday morning, and as of now it is still bubbling away, hopefully this turns into one good beer.

Just wish i could find a bottle of pliny here in MD to try it.

Me too!
I brewed Northern Brewer's Extract Pliny Kit, it was outstanding.
I can't get Pliny in NY either, but if you like IPA, I think you'll be pleased with your results.

I did the small batch NB Pliny kit and was not impressed. Definitely want to try their big batch that actually has dry hopping and such, I figure it would be bigger

Mine had lots of dry hops, two rounds. I think it is important.

Love IPAs in particular,i love flower power by Ithaca brewing.
If you have never tried it, it is fantastic.

I made the small batch version and had similar reaction. I thought maybe it was because it was my second batch ever. I didn't consider, until recently, that the small batch wasn't dry-hopped and that's probably why it was less than great. I dry hopped my Dead Ringer that went into the bottles 3 days ago and the sample tasted wonderful

I loved my Dead Ringer, just had a few bottles last night!
