Bottle at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. It looks almost clear but I can´t see my finger throug the glass. Smells of grapefruit. Stone are great brewers, however this beer is a bit to easy and un-complex to impress. I think a lot of brewers could make this...

Pours a beautiful dark golden color with a slightly orange hue. Really fluffy white head. Has a nice floral hoppy aroma, followed by an amazing fully hopped flavor. Goes down very smoothly, without any bitterness. I absolutely loved it! Best IPA in my samplings, hands down.

Bottle from Utobeer. Orange with a natural white head. Strong fresh hoppy and alcoholic aroma. Massive palate causing pleasurable spasms on the tonge. Multilayered flavours of citric fruits, particularly grapefruit with resinous piney notes. Fantastic, even at £6 a bottle.

<i>Bottle (35 cl) at the Rover, Göteborg, Sweden</i>. Cloudy amber/orange, low white head. Piney and apricot hop aroma, no malt character. Medium bodied and smooth. Well balanced, long bitter finish. Overrated.

It seems that ol Stone here is a well neglected treat this side The Isle of Mann. Glad they finally got it here at Total Wine. I havnt checked Broudys yet. Well, looking over Stones track record, I would say that had Wall Street invested their time in not being a bunch of dirty thugs, like Stone invest in producing a damn decent beverage on every occasion, I could quit my job and get another one tomorrow..on a Sunday! Well, this pours a nice golden colour. Clarity is well deserved. Nose is pine and Pilsner in style and a bit candied. Taste is really like a candied Pilsner, hopped up and served...definitely not shaken. Very well balanced and highly enjoyable. I like the fact that it really goes back and forth between an IPA and a Pilsner. It keeps me gessing. Lots of grapefruit in the aftertaste as well.

Poured from a 12 oz bottle this beer pours orange in color with a solid white creamy head. You can smell the hops and citrus in this one from across the room. Tasted of hops, citrus, pine and some spice. Great combination and the carbonation on this was just right. I little bit pricier than your average micro six pack but well worth it. Great beer,
