This thread brought out the BAs pretending to be BTs

I think I might have enjoyed this last batch of HF double citra more than Heady... maybe.

Way more. It puts Heady to shame. Society and Solitude 4 batch 1 is still the best I've ever had.

For me both of these beers just represent different ends of the IPA spectrum that I've experienced so far. They just changed and redefined the way that I looked at IPAs in general. Both phenomenal beers through and through.

You spelt Pliney wrong brah

 

[rich182]

Had Pliny on tap 2 years ago, was the best beer I'd ever had. Since had Heady and although not at first, I've grown to like it more.

Both great beers but not the best, had a lot of beers that are better than both.

This thread seems relevant again, may as well bump it to get some new input and discussion going.

Just drank a 2 week old Heady straight from the can to beat this SoCal heat. It’s working. Anyone wanna bring me a Pliny so I can give a definitive answer to the subject?

Let's try to keep it on topic here please. Don't want to end up with a locked thread.

Fresh Heady still brings a smile to my face like no other beer - even after all these years. Oh, and Pliny's decent

 

[davey101]

Heady plus a few tsp's of flour is straight fire.

Heady

Only because I've never had pliny

 

[Jacco Macacco]

Literally, whichever one I'm drinking.

If I was able to taste and compare 2 beers without becoming immediately drunk and losing all ability to evaluate, I'd have an actual opinion.

I might like the *idea* of liking Heady more though, that might win out.

So literally, maybe Heady.

Heady for tailgating and as a party beer. Pliny for a sit-down-at-a-bar kinda thing. Not because it’s fancy. Just because slugging back a 500mL bottle just doesn’t feel right.

Pliny on draft at the brewpub during happy hour for $3.25 though? THAT can’t be beat.

Heady tastes good- very different, but very good- after a year (or two). The first time was an accident; now I hold a reserve rotation on purpose. Srs. Try it.
