I got a big pineapple aroma and flavor along with some grapefruit and pine. A wonderful IPA. Thanks again Irishboy. jmuhops (663), Winchester, Virginia, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Nov 8, 2005 Pours clear gold-amber with a large, dense white head and some slow effervescence. Big west coast hop nose—citrusy and piney. The wheat comes through as a tart breadiness. The flavor begins as a wheat beer, especially if kept in the mouth for a few seconds—mellow wheat flavor and a subtle tartness. The finish is that of an IPA, and leaves the mouth quite dry. Innovative, excellent beer.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 27, 2005 Bottle. Hazy golden pour. This is like Gumball Head, but more hoppy, more body, a tad more alcohol. Hoppy citrus and pine aroma, with some banana and some esters. More of the same in flavor. Decent palate, and an easy drinker. The sad part of this beer to me is that I don’t see it keeping too well. Drink and enjoy while you have it - dont try to save it. madmitch76 (645), , Essex, England
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 14, 2009 10th June 2008. Cloudy amber gold beer. Plenty of hops but offset by a barleywine amount of malt. When it was straight from the fridge actually thought it was a barleywine. Very drinkable. KUEric (635), Chevy Chase, Maryland, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 18, 2006 Pint Bottle: Pours a nice orange goladen color with a pretty little white head. Tastes wonderful. A hoppy APA is what is tastes like to me. Smells of hops, citrus, pine, and goodness. Tastes like it smells, good, and also some caramel, and some potent fruitiness.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Mar 4, 2007 Bottle shared at the O Town Throwdown. Pours a goldish amber color, small white head. Aroma of yeast, citrus, soap. Medium bodied. Finish is citrus, with some sourness present. Like my fellow UM fan gumby, I was not a huge fan of this brew. RagallachMC (631), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 17, 2006 bomber. Aroma: Honey, grapefruit, slight pine, breadiness, sweet malt. Appearance: Amber and slightly hazed. Big, foamy, off-white head. Head diminished into a nice cap. Good lacing. Flavor: A nice sweet malt backbone with nice flavors of bread, caramel, and honey. Lots of complex hop flavors. grapefruit, resin, pine, floral, and grassiness. A slight alcohol flavor is noticed right before the finish. Finish has a nice bitterness to it. Palate: Medium bodied. moderate-high carbonation. Finish was dry. Slight alcohol warming left in rear of mouth. Overall: This was pretty good, but not as godd as I had hoped. I think alot of the subtleties of the wheat beer were overrun by an abundance of hop flavor. Not bad, but not great. BennyTicklez (621), USA

Aroma is slight grain and bit grapefruit hops. Taste is the same. Big bitterness of citrus and grapefruit. Lighter than other stone anniversarys but probably my favorite of the ones I have tried.
