Where To Get Pliny The Younger Bay Area 2025
This is just a partial list of venues likely to have Pliny the Younger in the San Francisco Bay Area. When places announce tapping, I will post the dates/times below.
Allotments vary from year to year. As with this hectic time, most places don’t release schedules more than 1 week out, others within a few days and some will do a surprise tapping (day of).
On top of that, some places have been known to kick kegs after 30 minutes of tapping, others have been unable to serve people if they arrive exactly at tapping time (long lines) and others require advance tickets.
I will update this list regularly so check back often (see timestamp above). I will post scheduled tapping as well. Note, this is just for tapping of kegs, Pliny the Younger bottles are only available at the brewery.

Pliny the Younger is a fantastic triple WC IPA and If you don’t want to wait in line and want to taste some incredible triple WC IPA’s that are produced more often, I have some recommendations below.
A few will force raffles, require tickets, make you buy food or something similar, which I am not a fan of (I will place these below the line for each region/part of the Bay Area).
Places below are a mix of likely to have it and certainly will have it. I will update tapping days/times as they become available (sometimes a few days out, sometimes day of) - check the timestamp above.
Most places will only have 1 keg, few will have more.

These are places likely to have it… but not guaranteed.
31 locations have published exact tapping days (listed below).
More dates/times will be added as many finalize plans within days, even hours, and some will announce them as soon as they are tapped. Check back soon.
I also added a few alternatives for people who want great triple IPA’s without the lines. Some are local, some are seasonal, some are out of town but can be found around this time if you look for it.
