Aug 1, 2009 Hopheads rejoice!! Pours a nice dark brown/red color. Small head. Aroma is hoppy as hell! Floral and citrus hops. Lots of grass too. Big beer. Hops bite you throughout the beer but there is just enough malt to make this a real treat. Stone does it right...yet again!

Aug 1, 2009 Another excellent brew from Stone. Huge hop aroma, grapefruit rind and rose petals. Big hops in the flavor too but they don’t overpower it and it remains very well balanced with just a hint of sweetness. Great stuff

Aug 1, 2009 Pours a dark copper brown color with a foamy tan head. aroma is of pine, grapefuit, fruit, and carmel malt. flavor is simillar with a foward piney and citrus hop flavor with a good amount of carmel and toffee malt to backup the hops. alchool is not too noticable on the finnish and the mouthfeel is not too heavy. overall, a nice Strong Ale.

Aug 1, 2009 Deep reddish brown color. Thick and creamy tan colored head that hangs on forever. Pine resin, grapefruit skin nose. Taste begins with Earthy hops, slightly sweet malt, warm alcohol, and big bitterness on the end. Above average palate that holds the flavor for a long time. I had really hyped this one in my head before trying it. It’s great but I think I over-hyped it a bit.

Jul 31, 2009 Pours a dark copper with foamy tan head. Aroma of caramel, malt, citrus, tropical fruit, piney hops. Similar taste with nice lingering hop bite. Dry in the finish as well Not as thick on the palate as it appears it would. Perhaps my favorite Stone I’ve tried so far.
