Stone Brewing

Hazy light orange. 1/2" cream colored head, which slowly fades. Moderate lacing.

Aroma is floral, guava, orange, mango.

Taste follows nose: guava, orange, mango.

Medium body, light carbonation. Dry, resinous finish.

One of the best IMP IPA's from Stone.

Poured from a bottle into a pint glass. Pours red orange with a fluffy off white head. Smells of bright fruit and citrus. Tastes of bright fruit and nice citrus. Beer is light bodied and easy drinking, good carbonation. Overall, a very good beer.

 

Really nice brew by Stone. A fan favorite reissue. Hops are typically Stone. The fruityness of this beer is awesome. Perfectly balanced and a crisp aftertaste.

12oz bottle enjoy by 1/20/23 into a pint glass.
L: Pours hazed yet luminous dark honey amber caramel w a 1" off-white rocky pock-marked head w VG retention down to thick edge foam, very light carbo, lots of sediment in suspension, sticky webbed lacing w light banding.
S: Sugary caramel malts, herbal hops, peach, fruity, honey, light alcohol w warming.
T: Caramel malts, very over-ripe orange, grapefruit, passion fruit, guava, citrus zest, a hint of root beer, berries, grapes. Lightly sharp & fairly sweet. Fruit zest is resinous and lingers for a very long time.
F: Gently crisp, moderately smooth w a light hop bite, a med-heavy bodied feel & center, a lightly drying finish & long linger. A bit sticky at the end.
O: A fairly robust and fruity DIPA w a sweet edge that allows for a very lengthy resinous linger. Not too dense. Well placed added fruits. A great compliment to hot 'n spicy cuisine. It is excellent in its style.

Pours a cloudy dark orange. Big foam. Tropical fruit aroma. Big fruity hop body. Pineapple and guava. Slight bitter finish. Juicy and flavorful. Excellent flavor. Not the usual from Stone but really good.

Dark orange amber with adequate foam in the Chimay chalice. It's actually quite clear, though I see sediment roiling in the bottom. Aroma of fruitcake and rum drinks. Alarming intensity of citrus and tropical flavors. And extremely sweet. This is just so overly flavored to me, but for those who like the added fruit flavors, it's quite powerful. I would call it a Fruit Beer rather than any kind of IPA, though there is plenty of bitter aftertaste. From the 12 oz bottle in the mixed 12-pack.
