They launched Stone Barrel in November 2013 with one simple aim, to brew the kind of craft beers they love drinking. The good thing is that we love them all!

Dark brown colour with quick fading head. Aroma and flavour have artificially sweet syrup notes. Background roasted bitterness suggest a good basis beer. The extras are not an enhancement.

Can. Pretty much a clear orange amber beer, good bubbly cream colour head. Airy palate, smooth and mildly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Fluffy malts, not a huge amount of depth here, but decent creamy sweetness and a touch of tangy caramel. Dominant flavour is of orange and tangerine peel hops. Some pine and brighter citrus underneath. Smooth and semi dry finish. A simplistic but reasonably drinkable barleywine. Don't dislike this but a good barleywine needs to be more than a dry hopped strong beer, much more.

Can thanks to Ashton McCobb. Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Aromas of light grapefruit an light tropicalia. Taste is lemon and tropical fruit. Light and dry. Lacks a bit of hop character for me.

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - golden with a nice fluffy head. Nose - grapefruit and pineapple. Damp dishcloth. Taste - tutti fruity and dank lemon. Palate - light bodied and dry. Overall - something a bit dirty/yeasty is slightly spoiling this.
