Stone Delicious IPA bottled for 2015

Hope it's in 4 packs or 6 packs instead of another 22 oz only release.

 

Saw them post about it on their Twitter feed, sounds amazing!

 

Looks like 12oz, 7.7%

 

that's some good detective work there sir

 

..... never heard of Lemondrop Hops

 

Described on a site I found:

Big herbal, blackberry, “Super Cascade”, menthol, grassy, citrusy, lemon, citrus, pine,
tobacco, licorice, orange, grapefruit, pepper, “Amarillo like”, mint.

 

OK, Now I'm very interstred. You had me at Super Cascade

 

I was fortunate enough to put it on draft at my place over the summer and was not disappointed. Definitely worth picking up

 

That's a nice looking bottle, I like the name too. Another A+ effort from Stone's marketing dept.

 

Well, they don't call me Sherlock for nothing.

Actually, they don't call me Sherlock at all.

Haha, how long do you think the committee took with that one? 'Man, this is a delicious IPA.' 'Done!'

 

Had this at the Bistro in San Diego. Amazing IPA!

 

I've never managed to have this, although it pops up on tap from time to time all around San Diego.

 

Really? We had it as well and nearly everyone detested it, reminded me of the Anniversary IPA they did with lemon. I really don't think Stone misses too much on what they want to do, but for me this was the complete opposite of the name.

 

Agreed that it is super good on tap. Although much more floral less intensely bitter than your average stone beer. It's going to be very dangerous at 7.7%. I'll be on the prowl for bottles.

 

Wow this is sounding like a new favorite!

 

So glad that this is getting bottled. Maryland never got any of the kegs, of this formerly draft-only IPA from Stone.

 

Got a growler of it this summer. Very tasty. I think its a lot like their 16th anniversary release.

 

Slyfox 360 IPA uses lemon drop hops among others but unfortunately had a distinct burnt tobacco/ash tray flavor to it. I'm sure this won't be the case with Stone though.

 

Looks great. Hopefully the pricing is in line with their standard IPA...anyone have a beat on pricing?
