does not count  Nov 7, 2009 650 ml Bottle: Big head, strong hoppy aroma, bitter taste. I love amercian style IPA and Stone Brewing has to be one of the best.

Nov 4, 2009 Bottle from Cavie. "Why hello, dry hop. You seem to have overrun my aroma." A little lemon aroma as well. Taste is hoppy, but not as much as the aroma. Very citrusy. Lots of side tingle on the tongue.

Nov 1, 2009 This is a very solid, hoppy IPA. Generous hops on the aroma and in the flavor. Notes of pine and citrus in the aroma. The flavor and finish are also quite bitter and floral and not too sweet, with at most medium carbonation. I like the Ruination IPA more, but this is a good IPA.

Nov 1, 2009 Light orange color. Both Fratto and I in tandum: "Why hello hops!" explains the aroma. Tastes of hops as well that don’t disappoint. Finish isn’t bad.

Nov 1, 2009 Bouteille de 12 oz. Arômes intenses et invitants de houblon américain (fruits tropicaux et résine). Robe dorée et claire, effervescence moyenne et légère mousse. Il s’agit d’une IPA qui met le houblon à l’avant-plan, avec une très belle présence aromatique (fruits tropicaux, résine). Le malt, très net, est juste assez présent pour soutenir le houblon. Finale bien amère. Une très bonne IPA de la côte ouest.

Oct 31, 2009 Poured from bottle into Nonic Imperial Pint.
Slightly hazy burnt yellow with foamy head and pretty strong lacing.
Aroma of pine and citrus, slightly sweet toasted malts.
Fantastic hop taste - mostly pine, citrus and some grapefruit. Some mostly dry malts to counterbalance the hop explosion, but not too much. Persistent bitterness at end.
Very smooth and very dry. Medium body and moderate carbonation.
For being so hop-centric and bitter, this is unbelievably easy to drink.
This has now become one of my top IPAs, along with Celebration and Two-Hearted.

Oct 30, 2009 12 oz. bottle- Pours clear golden with a pillow on top, aroma is of citrus and hops. The flavor is mellow, drinkable, and damn right enjoyable, you dirty bastard. Sorry, i apologize, the arrogant bastard in me got out, you stupid jackasses.
