It’s hard to improve on something with a well-deserved name like Stone Delicious IPA… unless of course you could double the Deliciousness. We’re talking serious depth of flavor and an explosive aroma of lemon & tropical fruit from Centennial and Amarillo hops, all with less bitterness than a typical double IPA. The result is extra fruity, extra satisfying and extra Delicious.

We have played around in the past with doing a double version of our Stone Delicious IPA. This one shares some attributes with Delicious but also is its own unique beer. At 9.4%, it drinks deceivingly smooth and really captures the complex layers of a Delicious IPA!

Big and a little clunky, but also pretty tasty, with a healthy bit of lemon candy and mandarin on the front end, backed up by mango and pine. Not as refined as normal Delicious, and the alcohol comes on fairly strong, but still good.

Great for a gluten low beer. Still good for a regular IPA honestly. Grapefruit and pine. Golden pour with decent head. Bitter end. Good body, good stone IPA. Bottle from Christmas IPA pack.
