Poured a reddish amber color with a small and rather quickly diminishing off white head and very little lacing. Sweet malt and spicy citrus hop aroma. Very nicely balanced. Very smooth malt, dried fruits, also some tropical fruits and an awesome hoppy bite. Above average mouthfeel, I like it alot. Thanks Marc.

Copper color with no head. Grainy aroma with a slight hop end. The taste is overwhelemed with a bland grain smoothie-like taste. Some earthy hops, but not enough to counteract the bad part. Disappointing.

2004 bottle. Orange-amber-yellow with some very light reds. Decent off-white head, quite foamy, lots of lacing. Clear. Smells very dry of hops, paper, biscuits, white bread. Flavor is hugely dry, not overly bitter, but just so dry you wonder where the malt is. Definitely strong for the style, though I really like that. Flavor is certainly crisp and clean, I just can’t seem to get used to the huge dryness of the malt and hops.

Bottle poured a clear copper with a small diminishing amber head. Aromas of carmel, earthiness, light pine and light orange. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of carmel, earthiness and light citrus with a smooth moderatly bitter finish.

Bottle shared with HogTownHarry, GregClow, jerc & tupalev -- courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a clear orange-amber with an average size lasting off-white head. Very pleasant aroma of fresh citrus hops with a nice amount of caramel malt to balance it out. Delicious flavour starts hoppy followed by some sweet maltiness and ends with a nice bitterness. Well balanced and medium bodied. One of Stone’s mellower beers, it would make for a great session ale.

Bottle. Pours mahagony with a small diminishing off-white head with lined lacing. Aroma of caramel malt and fruity, pine hops. Bitter and lightly acidic citrus rind hop with a cinnamon and caramel malt body, sweet brown sugar notes. Medium bodied and fizzy palate.

Pours a translucent golden amber with a medium creamy/lacing off white head. Aroma of caramel, tea, some citrus hops, and some other various fruits. Flavors of hops, caramel and lightly toasted malts and yeast. Some nuts. I prefer IPA’s but this one had a nice hop bitterness and flavor along with a decent malt backbone.
