Dec 18, 2005 Updated: May 7, 200822 0z. bottle - Pours a deep ruby red color with a one finger thick light tan head. Light lacing. Aroma is your typical Stone well hopped beer. You can actually taste some malt in this beer. Slight sweetness with very little aftertaste. Medium body. A very good beer.

Mar 26, 2007 Bottle: Dark amber in color with a light tan head. Aroma, caramel, brown sugar, earthy hops. Flavor, rich caramel, and some slight roasted malts, nutty, toffee, with a nice bit of earthy hops, and bitterness. It’s nice going back to it after so many other beers. It’s not what I remembered at all, but for once, that is a good thing. Usually something that I loved a couple years ago pales in comparison to what I like now, but this is definitely an exception.

Oct 7, 2007 Pour is reddish brown with a light head. Smell is malty sweetness, with some hops showing through. Taste is sweet but not overly at all, followed by a mild drying hop finish. Thich, and rich for the style, while flavors are somewhat mild actually. Nice bitterness at first, but it turned medicinal and aspirin tablet-like a bit. Not bad, but wasn’t too crazy about it either.

Aug 20, 2006 A dark amber pour. A huge hop aroma I know there is malt in there somewhere but I can’t smell it. Also a huge hop flavor. Balance of hops and malt I’m not sure about that but there is plenty of hops. A nice palate and oh yea did I mention the bitter at the end? No lingering alcohol in this as well. I like it and would drink it again.

Aug 7, 2004 Updated: Oct 5, 2006Very dark reddish color. Very hoppy and bold. Lots of flavor from start to finish. You can never go wrong with a bomber of AB.

Nov 20, 2008 Pours amber/copper, beige head.
Aroma is malty/roasted and hoppy.
Taste had quite a good dose of hops and malts. Slightly under the IPA version with more malts. Fruit notes.
Gains in roasted / caramel flavors as it warms up, but keeps a good hoppy finish.

Aug 2, 2006 22 oz. bottle. I was just looking over my list and I can’t believe I haven’t rated this one yet. I’ve probably got at least a dozen empties in my garage. Oh well, here goes...Pours a dark amber with a moderate long-lasting head with nice lacing. Very nice aroma of malt and grapefruit. STrong hops presence in the flavor (a bit over the top for me, but perfect for a hop-head). Bitter finish. Good stuff!

Jul 10, 2005 pours a verry reddish hugh w/ lots of carb bubbles and a nice off white head w/ some good lacing. Smells nummy big malty aroma a good even hop and a carmel plum scent. Palate is well carbonatd ok coating. Flavor is pretty odd.. a strong bitterness over a weaker carmel malt flavor very strong bitter and a lingering sweetness. Good but not great. thanks to blake for bringing to share.
