Excellent new Spotlight series beer from Stone.

Very low head retention, deep orange/brown hue.

Poured as a 4oz taster at Stone Company Store in Pasadena.

Incredible smell, very similar to that recognizable Rodenbach Grand Cru aroma of sour cherry with a nice wooziness in the finish. The taste also is reminiscent of a sour style beer, which I didn't expect from a wood aged Old Ale as I'm pretty unfamiliar with the style. However I know the style has been known to be soured, and I think this was a home run. Strong notes of wood with complimentary cherry and dried peach.

Great beer, just wanted to accompany with a quick review!
