On tap at Stone 17th anniversary party. A clear looking dark brown beer with a small beige head. There’s sure cedar on the nose, lovely. Roasted malts, citrus peel hops and a faint chocolate touch. Cedar in the flavor too. Roasted malts, some caramel and chocolate hints too. Nice bitterness. A bit too carbonated maybe, full body and quite dry. Long finish with a fine bitterness and cedar. Lovely, would not have guessed it is only 4.5 % alcohol. 130816

On tap at Stone 17th anniversary party. A clear one, amber to brown in color, and with a small off-white head. Roasted malts, some cooked vegetables, hints of manure and coffee. The flavor is better, without the manure, and with a fine bitterness. Roasted towards the end. Full body and a pleasant carbonation. Quite dry. Pretty strange this one. 130816
