Pliny the Younger 2019 Details (Denver)

It’s a bit early. I think everything, information wise, gets rolling after the new year. You can check last years thread and see when everything got rolling. As far as dates, some of them are not confirmed until shortly before their pour event, but that depends on the bar/restaurant.

 

Looking back at some old photos, the end of February seems to be when releases usually occur. I think some years it has been a hair earlier, but I have at least 3 years of PTY photos dated 2/28.

Just realized the last PTY I had was at the now defunct World of Beer in Glendale, and one of the friends with me has now been gone since the spring of 2017. RIP Terry!

I think I'll let those PTYs be the last ones I ever have.

(It was great by the way. We got our pours then got back in the line, and by the time we finished the second one we were up at the front for the third one. And by then there wasn't any line and we just walked up for our fourth. I'm thinking that was 2014 or 2015? That bar never really got hot with the craft community)

 

While most of it has come and gone, anyone else notice how much PtY we got this year? Feels like about 50 places had it rather than the usual dozen. Places that are barely even on the beer map got some. We're pretty fortunate to have access to it like that. While "old news" to many of us, PtY is still a white whale for a lot of the country.

 

Just came here to say weekday 3pm tappings/ticket hand outs can go right to hell.

Going to attempt to get a pour at Finn's Manor this evening. Would appreciate all thoughts and prayers.

 

Goed Zuur still has it. OR at least they did as of 9pm last night. If Finns is out, that's just a few blocks away.

 

Anyone know of anywhere else that still has it? I totally spaced on this and would love to try it.

 

I think Finn's is doing another one. Fire on the Mountain tapped it yesterday, another round at Falling Rock this Saturday

 

This list is pretty accurate. Colorado has definitely gotten move this year, then years past. It seems, Russian River’s expansions even includes PtY, which makes sense.

Interesting. I saw they were tapping at 3 and assumed it'd be gone by 5. Well maybe I'll give them a call at 5 and just head there
