Well, it wasn't just me. The wife helped, results are in for the tiger family....
Pliny/Abrasive
Double Jack
Stone Enjoy By
This isn't saying Enjoy By is bad, just not on that level.
Double Jack was sweeter than Pliny/Abrasive, for me it wasn't a deal breaker, but Mrs. FT, she put Double Jack in third for that reason.
Pliny/Abrasive
Couldn't tell these apart when blind. Abrasive has a grapefruit smell that Pliny doesn't. Abrasive is slighty cloudy which visually set it apart. Between the two I can't tell them apart by just taste, and that is all that matters.
For reference, once the test was over we each grabbed a glass, she went Abrasive and I finished off the Pliny. Stone is still sitting there and she took the Double Jack as a consolation prize.

I've only had abrasive and enjoy by out of those 4, and will readily admit that abrasive was the best beer I've ever had.

Really? I could tell them apart easily win I did a blind tasting.
Ranking those for me it is:
Pliny
Abrassive/Double Jack (more research needed here)

Had Heady Friday and I disagree whole heartedly with this. Heady was bitter and didn't have the depth of three of these. I would put it with enjoy by though.
sorry but you're wrong.
heady is the perfect dipa.

Interesting.
I would think Abrasive is the most identifiable of the four. I find it has a distinct resiny finish with a burst of citrusy hops on the front end. I've found Pliny (as well as Double Jack) to be more smooth.

I haven't tried them blind, but based on previous experience, my preferences would be:
Abrasive
Pliny
Enjoy By
Double Jack
You're splitting hairs when you get to this level and personal preference is a major factor. They're all world class IIPAs.

Pretty much the truth. I have had enjoy by several times over the past week and have enjoyed it. However against these other three it just didn't match up. There was a distinct drop off that made it unappealing when compared to the other three.

It's a Stone beer. I don't expect much out of them. I picked up a Stone Coffee IPA today that I am expecting to be mediocre. Maybe I'll be wrong.

That's how I feel about most Stone beers.
