Pours a bright orange. Thin foam. Hoppy aroma. Juicy hop body. Fades to a light bitter finish. The hops are not very pronounced. Pretty bland actually. Kind of syrupy sweet with the alcohol on the heavy side. Not very good for Stone. Should have left this one retired.

A - Medium orange gold with light carbonation and a consistent thin white layer of foam.
S - Citrus nose with pink grapefruit and some peach.
T - Citrus, orange, grapefruit, some floral, and a slight bit of malt grain. Starts sweet and ends with a bitter citrus bite.
M - Big medium body with light pricklies with dryness in the mouth building momentum after the sip.
O - Middle of the road, Ruination totally destroys this one but nevertheless, glad to have tried it. This was brewed in Richmond, VA and the ABV on this can is 8.5% so it makes me wonder if it should have it's own entry here on BA? Same beer name and no Napa anywhere on the can.

Enjoyed at the source. This is almost the complete opposite to the Purrs Like a Kitten session IPA, in every way. Bold, assertive, and just plain big (watch that ABV!). I get a lemony peppery kick from this, big and florid.
