Year of New Beer: 18th Anniversary IPA, Stone Brewing (CA)

Written By: Dion on 11/30/2014

Bottled 3 months ago, I probably haven't caught this at its best, but the nose is strong with caramel, light coffee, and earthy hop notes. On the tongue a nice citrus rind starts things off before a brown sugar hits mid-palate. The hops grab hold and offer a sticky, bitter finish. Nice beer, but I wish I had grabbed it a month or so ago.
