About the beer, Vinnie means don't store it away for a year and expect a better beer. The hops will have faded wreckng Pliny's spectacular hop-malt balance. It's meant to be drunk within a few months. If I lived that close to the Bistro, it would be my home. About the beer, Vinnie means don’t store it away for a year and expect a better beer.

So, does the brewer recommend drinking Pliny or Blind Pig "right away" or is it OK to keep it in the fridge (or a cool, dark area - - like my garage) for a few weeks or months? Vinnie's comment that the "flavor profile....diminish[es] very, very fast" leads me to believe we should just be drinking these excellent beers on draught! (easy for me, since I live within spittoon distance of The Bistro ;-) William:

It's nice to see Santa Rosa has so many locations with the beer. It's about time we had access to this beer. ;) Bottle Barn in Santa Rosa is flush with Russian River brews of all kinds, not just the new Pliny and Blind Pig.
