Pours to a dark reddishorange with thin off-white head that dissipates at mid-glass wihth okay lacing. Aroma was a subtle hoppy citrus, with undertones of malty dark fruit. Mouthfeel smotth and medium bodied and the taste picked up the subtle fruits of the nose. Finish somewhat short-lived, yet pleasant. Not Stone’s best by any means, but not a bad beer at all either.

This certainly isn’t the best beer brewed by Stone, but it isn’t all that bad either. It poured a dark amber color with a very generous off-white head that left lots of lacing around the glass. The nose was full of malty and bready notes, along with some hoppy tones. The body was rather light in character and bland in flavor. It certainly isn’t what I’m used to drinking from Stone. This is supposed to be a session beer, but I don’t think I could drink several of these in one sitting. The finish was a little hoppy, but was overwelmingly malty and a little bland.

Pours a dark copper with an off white head that holds nicely. A good hoppy aroma is present. Really good hop taste that is somewhat tingly to the mouth. Mouthfeel is good, but could be creamier. Aftertaste is nice and bitter.

Pours dark copper with a decent, lasting creamy head. Taste is orange peel, malt, bitter hops with a creamy mouthfeel and a strongly dry herbal hoppy finish. This is ok, but I wasn’t hugely impressed.

Bottle. Pours a murkey brown amber body. Aroma is hop. Flavor is smooth with hops, would serve as a great session beer.

Cask at GBBF 2009. A copper colour beer with a generous head when poured, though dissipates rather quickly. Has aroma of hops and sweet caramels. Flavour also has caramels along with roasted malts and has a nice bitter finish.

12oz bottle into a pint glass. Pours clear red with a big white head with big bubbles that goes away fast. The aroma is a bit of cat pee hops mixed with earthy tea and malt. The flavor is dry and earthy hops mixed with malt which does come across like tea or tobacco a bit. A bit watery for the malt backing, but still pretty flavorful for the percentage. The palate is quite light and drinkable with nice carbonation.
