Apr 22, 2009 I had this brought up for me from Arizona. I was pumped to give this one a shot. Pours a slightly hazy dark amber with a frothy tan head. Hops were grassy smelling with a hint of citrus. Excellent hoppy ale taste with a nice smoked woody finish. Very crisp palate. I thought this was a great beer but I liked the original bastard more.

Apr 21, 2009 pours dark red and slighty hazy. Smells typical Stone with hoppy piney smell with hint of woodiness. Taste is mellow with wood and heavy with bitter, but smooth, with a fine citrusy grapefruit hops flavor. Overall.. I don’t like oak, but it adds a nice character to this beer, without overwhelming it.

Apr 20, 2009 This brew has a slightly more intriguing than AB, has a nice after taste and a little more bitter than AB. Pours with a nice creamy head and a beautiful reddish color.

Apr 18, 2009 12 oz bottle.Pours reddish brown with tan head. enjoyed this more than AB. More mellow better flavor, I prefer smell of oak with hints of vanilla than regular AB . Not Bad,still not as good as double bastard ale.

Apr 15, 2009 Amber-red color with a big orangey head. I do prefer this variant to the regular Arrogant Bastard. It seems a bit more refined with a nice touch of the oak. Very enjoyable.

Apr 15, 2009 Reddish color with a creamy head. It was really smooth surprisingly, considering that the ABV is 7.8%. Overall a good smooth beer.

Apr 14, 2009 Rich ruby-reddish color with a creamy off-white head and decent lacing. Aroma of rich hiops and oak. Taste is remarkably smooth. Nice hoppy palate which is balanced out with a subtle enough oak taste. I was most impressed by the smoothness of the beer, having had the standard AB, the oak has a nice calming effect on the overall character.

Apr 9, 2009 Bottle from Bevmo.... Pours a dark amber color with a one finger head...Aroma is kinda hoppy but mellow nothing really sticks out or is overpowering... Flavor is kinda sweet yet oh so bitter. I can still taste the bitterness. It kinda reminds me of that dark chocolate bitter that lingers...Palate is smooth with good carb... Overall this is a really good beer but I prefer the regular AB.
