The aroma is very malty and very hoppy with caramel, pine, and citrus hops. The appearance is deep amber with a nice head. The flavor is like the aroma with a bit of toast. The palate is smooth. Overall it’s very good.

Dark copper amber pour with a one finger amber head. The nose is hoppy, resinous, citrusy, Simcoe, . The flavor seems like it is predominantly Simcoe as well, resinous citrusy hops, malt predominant, nice flavor, Centennial comes through as well. The palate is mildly hoppy a bit waxy.

12 oz. Nice amber pour with a tan head that slowly fades to white. Piney citrus aromas with some malt accenting. A pretty hoppy amber, some citrus and grass notes. Real good flavor for basicaly a light beer abv. Great drinkability, a good amber ale. The session beer to end all session beers.

5/18/2009: Stone Levitation Ale is a captivating dark amber color with a lasting head of beige-colored foam on top. This beer is almost the perfect session beer. It is low in alcohol with a lighter body, but is packed with quite a bit of flavor and character. It was plenty of roasty malt and barley flavor and just enough pine and citrus hops to keep it interesting. This is definitely one of those kinds of beers that really can’t get old no matter how many I could drink!

Draught (several pints) at the Winking Lizard Tavern (Bethel) in Columbus, Ohio. Rating #626 for this beer.
