Stone Pale Ale

Brewed by Stone Brewing Co.
Style: American Pale Ale
Escondido, California USA

The beer pours a deep red amber with a light white head. The nose is a light mix of malts and hops the taste is slightly hoppy and dry with a short finish

Cloudy amber with tiny off white whead. Sweet aroma with fruity and hoppy notes. Hoppy and sweet flavor with citric and piney notes. Ends bitter.

From tap at Pizza Port, San Clemente. Pours clear and golden orange with a fully diminished white head. Mild spiced and light hoppy aroma. Flavour is mild and light hoppy with a slight spice accent yet also a vague caramel malt presence. Ends dry and light bitter.

(Draft @ FS, HOU): Pours a reddish brown color. Creamy gray-whitish head, good lacing and seems to last. Very mild aroma, some nuttiness. Maybe some dark grapes. Fizzy, smooth not creamy. Some nutiness, some balance. Some dustiness. Mild. Some kind of fruit in tne tnste, but not dark fruit. I guess I was expecting more hoppiness.

Great Pale Ale. Perfect balance between hops and malt. Stone has yet to disappoint me. It’s even nicer when you happen upon one of these that you don’t have to pay for (Huge thanks to Jason w/ Stone!)

12 oz. bottle - Poured a dark copper color with very little head. Aroma is very nice, malty and also light hop scent. Taste is rich malt and perfect balance of hops on tongue. This probably the best pale ale I have had to date and the first beer from Stone brewing. Looking forward to trying more if I get the chance !!

Draught > Flying Saucer. Good easy drinker. Little cherry flavor too, I think? Not great but not terrible. Would’ve liked to seen another Stone beer come to Texas besides this one.

Bottle. Pours a clear orange/red with a small tan head. Aroma of raisin and sweet malt. Flavor of the same sweet malt and raisin, very light floral hop presence. This doesn’t taste like any pale ale I’ve had before. It’s a little too malty/sweet for me, which normally I like, but this was too raisiny/super sweet. Just ok for me.
