Tustin Brewing Company

***Added reminders and updates- heads up, this is cash only (we haven't jumped to the whole iPad charge thing...) and please remember it is 1 ticket per person and absolutely no jumping in line with spouses or friends.

Ok people, here's the deets... Same as last year. We will be selling tickets when we open at at 11:00 am. Keg(s) will not be tapped until 3:00 PM. We understand this is is great for some and not so great for others, but it seems to work out well. The idea is that once you have your ticket (think lunch break) then you can come back anytime after 3 to redeem your 1/2 pint. It kinda cuts down on the chaos. There is only 1 ticket per person. We want as many people to get to try it as possible. We hope you can make it.

Here's the dish on the actual beer...

Pliny the Younger
Triple India Pale Ale

Pliny the Younger, the man, was Pliny the Elder’s nephew and adopted son. They lived nearly 2,000 years ago! Pliny the Elder is our Double IPA, so we felt it was fitting to name our Triple IPA after his son. It is almost a true Triple IPA with triple the amount of hops as a regular I.P.A. That said, it is extremely difficult, time and space consuming, and very expensive to make. And that is why we don’t make it more often! This beer is very full-bodied with tons of hop character in the nose and throughout. It is also deceptively well-balanced and smooth.
