Jun 9, 2009 really interesting IPA. Having with my friend Paul B. and we both note the differences between what we’re drinking and the commercilal description. Hardly any piney qualities. Poured with some head and lace. Color is dark & hazy amber with cherry highlights. Aroma is a little grapefruity, some malty, rotten fruit, caramel, and grain. Wrap around the tongue body. Silky. Sweet finish. Not a session beer though. This is about 3 years old. Killler.

May 28, 2009 Thanks to Noah for the bottle. This seemed an appropriate way to commemorate rating number 400. What strikes one most about this now after a few years is the profound nose, with notes of lemongrass, toffee, orange, and vanilla seeping out of the glass. Leading into the palate, one picks up dried cherries and Meyer lemons, with burnt sugar rounding things out. There’s a hint of oxidation here, but this has aged very well.

May 26, 2009 Updated: Jun 1, 2009First of all, a big thank you to Rattle’n’Hum and Stone for their event last week. It was great to see a bunch of delicious Stone brews on tap all at once. I hear this is now a few years aold already, but it still tastes just fine. A rich, malty IPA that leans twoard the sweet side, which is OK with me. I tasted caramel, herbs, a little cheese, grapefruity West Coast hops. The aftertaste was a little salty and tingly. This is a juicy and powerful IPA, top shelf stuff.

May 25, 2009 Bottle sampled at DLD ’09. Not sure who shared, but sliffy passed me the bottle so he gets the credit. Clear amber pour with a thin tan head. Caramel and sweet malt aroma with a bit of dank hop. Malty flavor with some hop. More like a b-wine at this point. Would have loved to try this fresh.

May 24, 2009 On tap @ Rattle N Hum for Stone night. Pours a copper colour with white head. Aroma of honey, hops, caramel, citrus fruits, pine, and malts. Flavour is the same as the aroma. Great flavour!!

May 18, 2009 ok this is 3 years old now and is entirely different then anything i thought it would be. pours a hazy amber with thin head. aroma is sweet with zero hops present, but sugar and malts are there. drinks very similar to a barley wine as there are zero hops and it is very sweet and sugary with some red fruits in there too. not what i expected, but still really good.

May 12, 2009 Bottle at the “Drink for Charity” event at Rattle & Hum thanks to Mike who brought a vertical from 2nd to 12th. The last of the Stone anniversaries I drank, as I still have the 11th and 12th at home and wanted to save space for other exciting things. Pours a clear brown amber with a thin white head. Plums, prunes, and caramel. Comes off almost exactly like the 9th, though not as oxidized. Light bitter finish.
