Soft nose belies a punchy almost east coast dipa. Fruity and resinous hops overlayed on a dark, biscuit caramel malt body. Touches of chocolate and molasses in the aftertaste. A nice member of the stone ipa team.

On tap at Standing Stone, pours a hazy dark caramel orangey brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out notes of figs, and other dried fruits, toffee and caramel malts. Flavour brings out loads of toffee, red berries, figs and other such dried fruits, and caramel. Quite sweet, without being cloying. Great barleywine, drinkable in small doses.

On tap at Standing Stone, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out notes of coffee, followed by oats and a touch of chocolate. Flavour brings out dry coffee upfront, immediately followed by oats and dry unsweetened chocolate. Quite robust and coffee-centric, while still being light-bodied. Good one.

On tap at Standing Stone, pours a hazy dark orange amber with a small beige head. Aroma and flavour of light toasted nuts, some toasted bread and a very delicate hop character. Very subtle, gentle flavours, but executed pretty well. Light and restrained, but solid.

On tap at Standing Stone, pours a clear amber orange with a small beige head. Aroma is pretty light, with some dry toasted caramel malt. Flavour is pretty much the same, with a noticeable hop punch to back. Dry, toasted and drinkable, but nothing too special.

On tap at Standing Stone, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma is pretty light, with notes of citrus and floral hops. Flavour brings out floral hops, some gentle citrus notes, and some crackery malt in the back. For a boring golden ale style, this is quite flavourful. Good solid thirst-quencher.

Draft at SAVOR if I remember correctly on the pour (didn’t note it). Aroma was resin, citrus malts. Flavor was vibrant resinous, touch of citrus hops. Notes of malt backing. Enjoyed this one a lot.
