Beer 365- #172 Stone Arrogant Bastard Oak Aged
Pours a red tinted brown with nice fluffy head. Strong aromas of pineapple, citrus, wood and sweet malt. The mouth is dense without being cloying, the nice carbonation keeps it feeling light. Flavor is what one would expect, hops, hops, and more hops. Pine, citrus (pineapple, grapefruit), spicy, the oak seems to have accentuated the hop characters, the malt is underlying and supports the hop party well. Nice clean bitter finish.(7.2% ABV)
