Stone Americano Stout
Imperial Stout - 8.7% ABV Pete This has a rich coffee flavor and a nice hint of bitter. Of all the coffee beers I've had, this is the one that tastes most like I'm actually drinking something I got at a coffee shop. It is delicious and not noticeably strong. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Buenaveza Salt & Lime Lager
Light Lager - 4.7% ABV Pete Definitely taste salt and lime. It's definitely solid, but I think a lime wedge in it would put it over the top. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Buzzer Beater Double IPA
Imperial IPA - 9.4% ABV Pete Pretty good fairly bitter IPA with a little bit of dank flavor to it. I will say, I had this with lunch when I was massively hungover, and I still enjoyed it, so it must be pretty good. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Cali-Belgique IPA
IPA - 6.9% ABV Pete This one is just outstanding. It has the hoppy flavor of an IPA, but you don't notice the bitterness because there is so much flavor to it. It's a great balance that everyone should try. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Citrusy Wit
Belgian Witbier - 5.3% ABV Pete This one is quite different. Unfortunately, it just isn't very good. You can definitely taste the lime, but that just isn't working in this style for me. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Coffee Milk Stout
Milk Stout - 5% ABV Pete This isn't as sweet as I was expecting from a milk stout, but it is definitely full of coffee flavor. It's a great beer, and was perfect for drinking during Sunday football, as it wasn't too strong or heavy. That all said, I probably would have liked it even more if it didn't advertise itself as a milk stout, it's not sweet enough for that. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Delicious IPA
IPA - 7.7% ABV Pete This is a pretty solid IPA. It's very light in color, but not light in flavor. Nothing really stands out, but I would certainly drink it again. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Enjoy By Black IPA
Black IPA - 9.4% ABV Pete This was a pretty good beer, but I was still a little disappointed by it. It tastes like the regular "Enjoy By", but with some added, almost burnt, flavor that takes away from the 'purity' of the original. I love black IPA's, but this is a case where the 'black' part of it really took away from the glory that is the IPA. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Enjoy By Chocolate & Coffee IPA
Imperial IPA - 9.4% ABV Pete 2/14/17 version. Damn good IPA. I can't really taste chocolate or coffee (shame because the mocha IPA is amazing), but it's a great IPA nonetheless. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Enjoy By IPA
IPA - 9.4% ABV Pete This is a pretty incredible IPA. Smooth, crisp, hoppy, it has everything you want. I also definitely didn't notice how strong it was, so that's a bit dangerous. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Enjoy By Tangerine IPA
IPA - 9.4% ABV Pete This is a good IPA. I taste some citrus flavor, but it's more hoppy citrus than actually fruity citrus. That isn't necessarily a bad thing. Much like Sculpin, this is a beer where the slight variations are still good, but don't quite measure up to the purity and grace of the original. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Ghost Hammer
IPA - 6.7% ABV Pete Definitely not my favorite IPA. It's a little spicy, and maybe some maltiness too, it just didn't work for me. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Go To IPA
IPA - 4.5 % ABV Pete This is a great beer to get when you want to do some day drinking, but don't feel like drinking the usual light crap. It has a ton of hop flavor that is almost earthy. Really tasty. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Imperial Russian Stout
Russian Imperial Stout - 10.8% ABV Pete This is very thick and a touch boozy, but it's surprisingly lacking in flavor. It's good, but probably not worth the extra price. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Stone IPA
IPA - 6.9% ABV Pete I drank this entire beer without really noticing anything about it. I'm not sure what to make of that. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Japanese Green Tea IPA
IPA - 10.1% ABV Pete This is definitely different. You can certainly taste the tea, but somehow it is still a pretty tasty beer. It's worth trying for the experience. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Levitation Ale
Red Ale - 4.4% ABV Pete This is a red ale, but tastes more like a pale ale. The defining flavor is the bitterness of the hops, but it isn't too overpowering. Pretty good beer. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Stone Liquid Compass Double IPA
Imperial IPA - 8.5% ABV Pete Tastes like gin with a little extra maltiness. Combine the gin flavors with high alcohol gives you a pretty slow sipper. Pretty solid. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
