Bottle. This is a golden orange colour in the glass with an half inch off white head. Looks great! There’s lots of piney hops in the aroma with some grapefruit, all full and aromatic. The mouthfeel is medium in body, a bit oily; carbonation is fairly light. There’s plenty of bready caramel in the flavour, a fair emphasis on the malt character with some citrus, wood, distant grass through hops in the background.

Aroma is lightly hoppy, as expected, but the taste was surprisingly watered down. A little bit of a hoppy bite, but more of a tea characteristic in the finish. Appearance is nice, copper/amber, clear, with a nice off-white head and good lacing.

On tap at Stone. Light amber, smallish head to no lace or ring. Smell is smooth and subtle. Light in the mouth. A little light on flavor. Some sweet malt. Some snap in the finish.

Very nice brew for the hops lover. Very drinkable and is an all time favorite of mine. Another excellent brew from Stone.

Pours clear amber, with a medium beige head, fine and long lasting lacing. Smells of pine, citrus, grass, and apple. Medium thin body. The initial flavor is citrus, caramel and apple, which quickly fades into a very gentle bread and pine flavor. Long aftertaste of a mild grass and pine bitterness. Well balanced and drinkable.

Dark chill haze amber color and a thick beige head on the pour. Superbly piney and sweet citrus aroma. Smooth sweet then enough of a bitter finish to match the sweetness. One of the top APA’s I’ve ever had.

The pale ale that sets the bar for all other pale ales to be judged. Quite hoppy and slightly malty. reminds me of sierra nevada pale ale.
