Escondido, California - Imperial/Double IPA - 9.4% ABV - This hop-full beast poured a clear, golden-straw color with a frothy white head. Dank aromas of resinous pine, grapefruit peel, lemon zest, and sweet malts come together nicely to make a beautiful bouquet of a nose. The mouth featured tropical flavors of passion fruit, hints of mango, and resinous pine up front, while having undertones of grapefruit and malts on the back end. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied, while having a silky, zestful finish. Enjoy By 04.20.14 is as delicious as the previous releases, but lacked the in-your-face hop profile featured in the 02.14.14 release. Cheers to another solid brew by Stone! 9.6/10
