Stone Brewing Co.

Go To IPA

I cannot believe I forgot to review this, had this so many times, maybe I did review it, just do not see the post, anyway, this is Stone's session IPA, what that means is, it is a lighter version of a IPA, most have 6-7 % alc/vol, this 4.5%, they use a hop bursting process, adding late addition dry hope at the end, big tropical notes and flavor, mango, passion fruit, pineapple, excellent beer, when you do not want to be blown away, but still want a hoppy fruity IPA — 11 years ago

Hop Odyssey Limited Release Series Citra Session India Pale Ale

Green Flash's session IPA, made with Citra Hops, big big citrus hop flavor, light on the IBU's 35, so what you get is a very easy drinking citrus beer, has enough hops to do the job as a Good IPA, session IPA that is — 11 years ago

Saturday night...time for steak and claret as my buddy Gary Westby says. In this scenario, I envisioned the wine being equal or even better than my steak. Not to toot my horn but most everyone that's had my steak simply says meaningfully that it is the best they've had. Myself, I've only had one better the Ribcap at Bourbon Steak in SF; which sadly closed as the hotel took back the space they were in. Hopefully, soon to reopen again elsewhere in SF. However, back to the Pichon Baron. I can't say I loved it. I wanted to love it as it is one of my favorite properties in Pauillac. The wine isn't bad but it just never shined. Maybe, it's just not a good moment in it's evolution to open. It's soft, elegant but missing the beauty, flavors and complexity I've come to expect. The fruits are dry blackberry, dark cherries, black raspberries, a touch of juicy strawberries and black plum skin. Dark dry powdery minerals, saddlewood, lead pencil savings, underbrush, dry dark earth, dry pebbles. There is not much on the mid palate, it finishes a little flat and the fruits never really shined. Surprising for such a warm vintage. Hoping it improves over the years as I've got 5 more. Unusual that the wine really needed the steak more than the steak needed the wine. — 9 years ago

I'd give the wine a higher score- it was balanced, smooth and finished nicely. I loved the pairing with the steak and potatoes we had- my husband does do a great job.
In the end if give it 9.4. It was one of the nicest wines I've had in a while

Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2011

Not as brilliant as it could be but pleasant color nonetheless (veering towards brown). Nose has fantastic balance of earthy and berry notes. Pallet is delicious, smooth and great flavors. I wish the finish lingered a little longer. Still, perfect Saturday evening at home wine for two — 10 years ago
