Stone Brewing Levitation Ale
Beer-a-Day #287
This is a leftover from O-fest weekend. Score!
Deep amber and a solid head. Piney and resiny hops; I mean, the aroma is just loaded with them. Big hoppy flavor but still just session weight. I could see myself drinking that a lot.
No trackbacks yet.

Medium amber with a little chill haze. Big hop aroma, with grapefruit and toast. Big hop flavor and delicious.
They should just call this “hop head’s delight”.

Deep, nearly opaque amber color with a good inch of creamy-looking head. Piney and resiny aromas, with a bit of vanilla I think. Nice, big hoppy flavor with a little bit of sweetness in the finish.
Oh, I’m worthy brother.

It has been said that gravity sucks…so in the defiance of gravity, Stone Brewing brings us Levitation Ale. The beer promises to bring big flavor at only 4.4% ABV and Stone has yet to disappointment me. (except for the price on their Oaked Arrogant Bastard Ale)
Levitation pours a rusty red color with a thick head [...]

Session #26 is Smoke ‘Em If You Got ‘Em, hosted by Lew Bryson.
There may be more smoked beers than are dreamed of in your philosophy, Horatio; it’s not just rauchbier lagers from Franconia. Within the last year, I’ve had a strange smoked wheat beer, light and tart, that local brewers insisted was a re-creation of [...]

Back in October we tried an Octoberfest bake off (a taste test) and it wasn’t that successful. Nice.. not thrillin’, but nice. So when a different group of my friends suggested a blind IPA taste testing, I wasn’t very optimistic; but of course I was game anyway.
Surprise! Not only was it a great evening, the [...]

If I had any doubts about what would happen with the the hops shortage, I just got a very concrete example.
Yesterday, I paid $16.99 (+ tax) for a six-pack of Stone Ruination IPA.
I will certainly be savoring these.

Fantastic beer! And coincidentally, also the beer I drank yesterday, and also number 287 of mine for the year!

Really? That’s quite a coincidence.
