I usually quite enjoy Olde Stone's seasonal offerings, but this one is just plain off the mark and its the first time I can remember them missing quite so badly.

Clear yellow gold with a big white head. Indistinct nose.

Misses big time tastewise and on mouthfeel. Yeasty, doughy, and incredibly heavy and dense. Just unpleasant to drink and simply feels like a chore to your mouth. I made my way through a pint, but I saw a number of rejected part glassfuls sitting forlornly at various tables. The general consensus seemed to be that this was not to good an effort. Stay with the standard house offerings until this one is out of the way.

Sorry to see it happen, but still looking forward to what comes next.
