Great mixture of malt and hops. Quite possibly the best American Strong Ale I’ve had. Really looking forward to experiencing more Stone products.

THIS BEER IS EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD! I’M NOT SURE I CAN DESCRIBE IT, BUT I REALLY, REALLY LIKE IT. IT IS A VERY BOLD FLAVORED BEER THAT IS A PLEASURE TO CONSUME! THIS BEER IS AS GOOD AS THEY GET!

22oz bottle. Poured a rich brown with a small head. This was the first bottle I’d had in a few years - smoother than I remembered, with more spice by smell than by taste. Smooth start with a hoppy, bitter finish.

hoppy, but not happy enough. looking for more punch from an ale. wrinkles my nose/upper lip a bit.

I poured a pint from a 22, and I gotta say, it was bitter, very bitter. While I got the other flavors from it, it just was bitter, add had a very dry bitter after taste. I have been a fan of the oaked version of this beer, which I found to be a lot smoother, I have to chalk this experience up to the beer being old or slightly skunked. That being said, I still enjoyed the flavor while drinking the brew.

For some reason even before I bought this beer I new I was gonna love it. You open it pour it or sip out the bottle and ur first thought is how how hoppy and strong it is and within in a second you Just accept this is a amazing beer. Smells great, pours a beautiful hazy brown and taste great. definatly on my top 5 favs

One of the greatest beers I’ve ever tasted. Bitter and strong, the Bastard is thick and rich. Some of my fondest memories involve this beer.

Piney hop aromas on the nose, along with some hints of caramel. Nice maltiness cuts down on the citrus/resin hop bitterness, very drinkable. The bitter finish lingers for a while, I enjoy it quite a bit. Definitely one of my go-to beers.

Definately a good beer...memorable. I don’t think I would have been able to have more than one of these in one night...not because of the alcohol content, but because the taste is really stong. Too bad it’s hard to find here and so expensive =(
