| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Feb 22, 2009 1/21/09 From the bottle. Aroma is grassy, not harsh, with a light caramel background. Appearance is clear gold with a very well maintained white head. Flavor is sourvsemi-earthy citrus hops forward, with a light watery sweetness in the background. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a medium carb texture. Overall, not huge, but big enough to typify the style. OzarkElmo (117), Poplar Bluff, Missouri, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 22, 2009 From 22 oz. bottle into tulip at brew pub. Clear amber color with medium off-white head. Good lacing remaining throughout. Very hoppy - pine/citrus and bitter through the finish. Review is of last half of bottle as the first pour included a slight aroma of bleach. This from a respected brew pub - I did not complain, just let it sit awhile. I will say it dampened my excitement immediately for my first taste of Stone IPA. Overall very enjoyable - Cheers! french tickler (642), Aylmer, Quebec, Canada
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 22, 2009 Bu dans un verre de la fin du monde et a temperature piece. Apparence exactement que sur la photos, or / orangé avec un collet extremement mousseux qui colle tres bien au verre. Arome de pin, gingembre, zest d’orange, belle variété d’houblons aromatique. Palais tres crémeux, avec un debut amere subtile, mais qui reviens tres fort et qui persiste longtemps. Finition sec. Une des meilleurs IPA de base que j’ai gouté, de toute evidence il n’y as rien de complexe, juste une belle variété d’houblon et de maltes. wingman333 (236), San Antonio, Texas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 22, 2009 Bottle. This would pass for an imperial IPA in most cases. Stronger in taste than most of that classification. Strong, fruity-hoppy aroma. Tastes rather fruity but extreme bitterness on the back end. Light color. It reminded me of the West Coast IPA, which I think is nearby. kidrobot (63), Sparta, New Jersey, USA

Nice dark amber color with off white head. Very citrusy with an intense bitter finish. I’ve never have been a big fan of extra hoppy flavor, but I ’ve gotta say I really like this one.

| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 17, 2009 Fresh hop aroma of mild pine, grapefruit and other florals with caramel malt in the background.
Beautiful apple juice color with a copper hue and sediment particles are suspended. Lots of action with an off white head.
Resin flavor of well balanced mild pine and fresh grapefruit with some sweet tea and caramel flavor in the background.
Medium bodied, resinous, crisp carbonation, and has an alcohol warming throughout.
A session IPA for hopheads very tasty and well balanced overall.
