Poured from a 22oz. bottle into a snifter.
The color is a deep, dark maroon with a finger or two of light brown head with some nice lacing.
The smell is very hoppy with a strong pine flavor and so light citrus flavor in the background.
The taste is of pine hops and a bit of a biscuit flavor.Also has some dark fruit character a pinch or raisin mixed in with a grain feel. Has a really strong bitter aftertaste that lingers for a bit. The flavor profile is of a great Stone beer. The flavor will mark it's mark in your mind.
The feel of this beer is pretty light and washes of the tongue. Is quite drinkable and really a pleasure to drink.
