The big wide world inspires our imagination and fuels our passions. Anything from music, film, beer, literature, architecture, food, engineering, poetry…all art forms essentially, including more beer. We steal with any and all things that possess the one value that we hold most dear: authenticity. The important thing of course is that ‘It’s not where you take things from – it’s where you take them to.’ So, what are we saying about this beer, exactly? We gave it our take. We took all there is to love about the IPA, got creative, dry-hopped it a lot, left it unfiltered and shared it openly in the hopes that in some way it may, in turn, inspire you. Hail to The Hop Thief, an original.

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

    Rated in Nov. 2017. 22oz bomber pours with a clear copper body that supports a thin dirty white head of foam that leaves behind some spotty lacing. The aroma offers up flowery sweet pineapple, pink pungent grapefruit, peach and then soft orange fruity candy. The taste delivers peach, flowery tangerine like citrus juiciness and then earthy fruity candy leading to some smooth sweet malts. Interesting hop profile. It is taking time for my palate to adjust to what's going on. Another few sips and papaya and pineapple seem to bubble out from under the flowery fruity earthy hop flavor. Hmmm. The hops seem a little too floral with a bit too much malt underneath. This one, for a change, isn't in my wheelhouse.

    Pours clear topaz with a thick and lasting eggshell head. Aroma delivers hoppy and malty notes, not strong but inviting. Flavor, fortunately, well exceeds the aroma, featuring strong notes of evergreen hops and zesty fresh malt with a grapefruit underpinning. Mouthfeel offers fair fizz and body. Happy 21st, Stone, and congrats on becoming legal!
