May 11, 2009 It pours a golden color with an off white head. The aroma is of caramel and citrus- grapefruit, orange, and lemon. The taste is the same. Very well balanced, and stylish. Tasty and bitter without destroying the palate.

May 8, 2009 Pours golden with two fingers of frothy white head; nice lacing. A brief wisp of malt aroma is quickly outgunned by the bouquet of the freshest floral hops; a tiny bit of skunk. Flavor is well balanced between the aggressive hop bitterness and the flavors of malt and evergreen hops. Medium body and a clean finish. This is a great beer and the best thing by Stone I’ve had.

May 7, 2009 Pours an orangy straw color with a thin head and nice lacing.
It tastes exactly how an IPA should taste. This isnt an overpowered IPA trying to be too much, bordering on a DIPA, this is a perfectly crafted hoppy but balanced IPA. Good amount of citrus, not too much pine, and a smooth sweet malt finish.
Starts dry, finishes sticky. Kind of like me with your mom.

May 5, 2009 Bottle. A yellowy-orange color, a bit lighter than I expected, with a nice foamy, fluffy, and clean off-white head. Lots of rich, fresh, piney, earthy, citrusy hops in the aroma. Broadly hopped, no doubt, as the flavor is dominated by them, in all the same variety as the aroma. Just a little bit of malt sweetness hiding in the background. A nice sharp bitterness lingers in the back of the mouth. Smoothly and finely carbonated. How come I’ve never tried this before now? Seriously, I’ve been missing out on an exceptional IPA.
