Commercial Description:
Look up "hops" in the dictionary and you’ll see a picture of Stone IPA! "Dry-hopped" for an extra two weeks, this unique process gives our IPA its bountiful hop aroma and rich hop flavor. A full 70+ IBUs (International Bitterness Units) creates this beer’s crisp and refreshing bitter character.

On Tap at the Falling Rock Tap House, Denver 10/10/2007 Hoppy and fruity aroma. Some carbonation. Amber golden coloured strong in alcohol and hoppy with a grapefruit flavour. Bitter and dry lasting finish.

Strong piney hop aroma; taste of dough and pepper beyond the standard hoppy bitterness. Clear dark gold with bubbly carbonation; dry finish; thin white head is short-lived but laces nicely.

Pours a hazy golden orange with a nice white head which stays. Aroma almost knocks you over with tons of citrus hops - lemons, limes, grapefruit. Flavor is sweet nectar up front followed by huge citrus and floral hops. Heavily carbonated but still very smooth. Very nice IPA.

A golden orange beer with a small head. Aroma is floral, piney, & peppery. Taste is very hoppy, bitter, & smooth for the bitterness. A very good standard IPA but there are better ones.

Just a great IPA, gotta love it. A classic West-coast hopped-up example of the style. Very reliably good.

Light golden in color.. Floral hops aroma, more subtle than a lot of west coast ipas I’ve had.... Flavor is floral hops, nice bitterness throughout with a nice spicy bitter finish... Very enjoyable IPA

Bottle at Henrik Øl og Vinstove in Bergen, shared with Elisabeth. Unclear golden. A few patches on the surface. Sweet and bitter aroma of citric hops. Well blended flavour of grapefruit, lemon and orange shells. Malty sweetness beneath. Decent dry bitter ending. A real pleaser to the palate (18.06.2009).
