All In IPA
Stoneman Brewery

a: opaque orange with a half finger thick white head which receded to thin surface foam and spotty lacing.

s; moderate citrus.

t; Light to moderate bitterness over a medium bready malt base. Dry finish.

m; Substantial medium, very good body and some carbonation tingle.

o; A good if not outstanding New England style IPA, less "juicy" flavor than most but easy drinking.

16 oz can poured into a pint glas, a hazy straw orange with a one finger head that moves quickly to a thin lace. Heavy tangerine and blood orange/grapefruit on the aroma. The taste is mix of grass, citrus, earthiness, and pale malts. The mouthfeel was very light, a touch watery, with a medium low amount of carbonation. Overall, a decent, if odd, IPA concoction.

Whitish, yellow color. Extremely cloudy (but the flavor doesn't reflect this). Lasting, foamy head with good 3D lace on the glass.

The smell is a bit off. I get a lot of milk with some of it soured. This is a malty brew. Very little hop.

The taste is an improvement with a better hop presence. Still, the pale malt dominates. The off-putting smells do not show up in the flavor. The body is thin with an elevated carbonation level. The finish is the best part with a nice blend of very pale malt.

Thanks to housepants for this 16 oz. can that came courtesy of my first place finish in a fantasy baseball league. Still haven’t won a single playoff series in (eight?) years. I suck.

Pour is light yellow with enough haze to make it mostly opaque & stratospheric head. The nose is grassy, herbal, with a touch of grapefruit.

All In is the equivalent of a pair of eights. You know you’re going to get a beat-down, but you just keep hoping. This is closer to a mild pale than an IPA. Nice firehose of moderate bitterness is complemented by grapefruit, citrus, & light grains. Light & easy to drink.

Nothing remarkable hear, just a nice, easy drinking, pretty good IPA.

 

 

Stoneman Brewery is 100% Four Star hops from Northfield, MA. Rakau, Nugget and Cascade.

A very clear, yellow golden color with white hues. Lots of life, full blown , dense and creamy looking white foam maintains its high position for a long time. Lots of stick, left over lace!!

Hay, freshly cut grass, light and sweet honey, dried wheat, spring water, earthy herbs and slightly sweet and tropical and mellown tones pop right out of the nose. Some sweet, summertime floral and caramel aroma's pop out underneath.

A mild , juicy and easy drinker for an IPA. Totally locally grown hop threesome adds earthy undertones, mild citrus, fresh hop cone pine and juicy fruits. Not huge in complexity, and the mouthfeel is light, juicy, easy drinking and rather refreshing. Malty grains, light wheat and crispy earth affects seems to balance out the hops...?maybe a but too much. A bit of a "home grown" level and lasting impression. That being said, this is a totally enjoyable, easy ipa that has a decent "Western Mass" following for its "local" ingredients.

 

 

My name is Mike and I live in Northampton, Massachusetts. Why this information is not displayed prominently for all of us who use this site is beyond me. At least it is not owned by ABInBev. Stoneman... interesting story as this small brewery had been until recently running on the CSA model (Community Supported Agriculture) for members only. This year, it has gone commercial and cans are available locally. All In is a decent IPA, using all locally produced hops. It is a mild IPA, aroma of hay and hops. Taste has a medium bitterness which doesn't linger... not any of our usual New England IPA citrus flavor, but it is unfiltered.Smooth, good mouthfeel, moderately clean finish. One to have again. Awesome. Thanks for the review!
