We get Pliny often down here in PDX. And citrus mistress is good, but I wouldn't say it's similar to Pliny other than it is a hoppy beer.

Re: Beer rankings

Pliny is a classic, though there are many other IIPAs that now have similar flavor profiles. Stone's Enjoy By is high on my IPA list.

Re: Looking for a drysuit

I have an old USIA drysuit that Norris has been holding onto for quite a while. It was my original suit and has basically been a back up for several years now. It's a bit rough around the edges, and might need new seals if Norris hasn't gotten around to replacing them yet. If you're on a tight budge...

Re: Wasted Sea Star Purple Pale Ale

I bought a case of it from their first run. Apparently it didn't turn out the way the brewer had hoped, so they discounted it to get it off the shelves. I'm not sure if they've tried it again since then or not.

I remember the boots on my old USIA to be very narrow. I can see why the 2xl are so floppy.

F1s can easily be found for $170 new. $150 is a bit high for used fins, even if they're in good condition.

Mine chipped a bit when stamped and it's been fine for 3+ years now. I'm not at all worried about the longevity of the tank.
