I finally was able to try a real Pliny the Elder and compare it to my clone, which I made a year beforehand. Mine was close in aroma and taste but on colour, was darker and less filtered. Pretty darn close though.

I think there are better Imperial IPAs out there like Dogfish 90 Minute and Brasseur du Monde's L'Interdite 90 and 120.
