3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20For all it's scornful commenting, double arrogant is somewhat subtle at first, only biting back on the palate's backside. Great appearance and head, pours somewhat on the rust side. The malty backbone gives this robust ale something to be proud of, but won't give you the sharp citrus or pine notes you might expect of the variety

Take a chance to drink this. Awesome. Thick rich malty but not overpoweringly so or unbalanced in it’s deliciousness. Totally great. Drunk with Brian so I was. You’re asleep now.

Draft. Pours a deep copperish brown color with a good light tan head. Aroma is very sweet, with caramel and nutty notes. Moderate alcohol note as well. Taste is very big, with moderate sweetness and alcohol lingering on tongue. Palate is full, but not too heavy. Absolutely wonderful.

Boy this is big. Tap at churchkey. Pours amber with a little head and lots of lacing. Big alcohol hit. Nose is fruity and some sugar. Notes of dark fruit, maybe some rye whiskey lots of sweet malt. Tastes are medium sweet heavy bitter and alcohol is in your face.

Dark brown ale with a khaki head. Sweet ripe fruits, soapy hops and wood notes aswell on the nose. Full and round body with bitter and strong hops. Some alcohol warmth. Very good ale with strong hops and bitter finish that leaves you satisfied.

This is a very good beer but it’s definitely over hyped. Like many of Stone’s beers.

A - Pours a clear garnet with a mix of tight cream colored head that’s mixed with big bubbles and sticks around. Sticky sheets of lacing 3D lacing make for a beautiful looking beer.
S - Rock candy, fresh pine wood, bready yeast, doughy buttered biscuits, warm caramel, citrus hides underneath the pine.
T - Dense caramel malt with a hint of buttered biscuits. Sugary cherries hide underneath the slab of rich caramel malt. Toffee and sticky raisins follow a creamy sticky malt. Floral, pine, and citrus hops provide excellent balance as well as a soft but strong bitterness on the palate. Has a long finish of pine resin with orange oils floating on the palate.
M - Dense, creamy, sticky, thick body.
A highly crafted beer at it’s best! It screams quality and a big, rich flavors! The alcohol is hidden very well. It’s exactly what you want it to be. Big, bold, rich, and robust.
