I'm in WV. She's in LA around the West Hollywood area. She called the majority of the stores yesterday looking for it. Said they didn't get any even though they usually do on Tuesday. Does anyone have a lead on where it is right now by chance? And if not, something I should substitute in it's place? Obviously out here in WV it's a Holy Grail. Lol. Thanks everyone!
You could try Cap 'n Cork in Los Feliz, or Bill's in Atwater, those are two of the stores that low-key stock it the most frequently at least in my area. Both are east of West Hollywood, and will likely have them as 1pp, but it's worth calling and asking.
Thanks for the info. I called, but seems that nobody got it this week. Cap 'n Cork said to call Friday they might.
While Pliny is great and I hope you find a bottle, I have no help on that because I buy Pliny like 3 times a year, and mostly when I go to the source. It does sell out within hours at the places that do get it. There are other great offerings that are easy to get that I hope you take advantage of.
I visited LA last summer and found that Pliny was ok compared to the Beachwood, Highland Park Brewing etc offerings. Of course you might want to still check it because it's a widely used benchmark. El Segundo Mayberry IPA is a good call for an alternative.
Whole Foods on Santa Monica Blvd. usually gets some. It's worth a shot if she hasn't tried it already. 7871 Santa Monica Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90046 (323) 848-4200
Sent him a message telling him how to get some but never heard back. Hope bro got the Pliny he was looking for. We may never have closure here.
Check Russian River's website as they list the accounts that carry their beers. I have a few near my area out in Riverside but I haven't seen Pliny in a few months. It's been hit and miss lately.
