Lagunitas Sonoma Farmhouse Hop Stoopid

Brewed by Lagunitas Brewing Company
Style: Imperial/Double IPA
Petaluma, California USA

clear straw yellow with a white head. very sweet nose that smells of citrus, vanilla. how much crystal malt is in this thing if it is this hoppy? the sweetness is intense, blueberry, lemon, sweetcornbread, pineapple, and a flavor that reminds me of a dry hopped amber with nugget i had the other night. orange flavor lingers in the finish. not really what i was wanting, drinkable and still enjoyable. 4 5 6 3 14

A fine double IPA, but not in the upper echelon. The pour was a clear light amber and the aroma was very nice fruity/citrusy hops. This beer is well balanced for a double IPA with a nice malt body that became very citrusy in its hops. Not overly big nor overly hopped up, but Hop Stoopid was a delicious, easy drinking beer.

Very good brew. Pours orange with white head. Outstanding citrus aroma. Flavor is sweet, full of caramel tones. Slightly bitter, yet sweet finish. Would drink again!

This beer has travelled a long way to get to Hamilton, New Zealand. It shows a bit, but there’s still an excellent beer here. For a start, it’s freaking beautiful in the glass. Glowing amber/orange, with a fluffy white head. The aroma exuding from the head is a lovely mix of grapefruit and oranges. The flavour is a little sickly sweet, and this is where I think the age and distance is showing a bit. Under the sweetness is a really nice mix of marmalade, toffee, and citrus. There’s a biting bitterness which builds up over the course of a pint. Great beer, can’t wait to try it fresh on tap in the US.

22oz bottle - pourse a an amber color wtih plenty of foamy white head. Intense grapefruit aroma along with hops, malt, caramel and flowers. Taste of grapefruit, orange, hops and malt. This beer certainly comes with the trademark Lagunitas grapefruit and hops kick. Solid Imperial IPA - glad I was able to track this brew down. Next time I will buy a few of them.

For a 100 plus IBU beer it was well balanced. Hoppy but not over the top like I thought it would be. good stuff

22oz bottle. Orange color with a medium sized rocky white head. Tropical fruit hop aroma. Sugared pineapple and mango hop flavors. Citrus sorbet and an appley malt component manifest. Soft, floral perfumey finish. Mouthfeel is light medium.

Bottle. Poured gold with an amber hue and an off-white head. aroma was full of hops leading to a piney aroma. Flavor was dominated by hops but at o point was overwhelming. Lead to a nice combination of citrus and piney flavors.
