Another really well made and original Stone collaboration, this is a Belgian triple with a twist, carrot, raisins, vanilla Bean, cinnamon, but nothing over the top, just hints, delicious, but you really have like this style and appreciate the subtle hints that you get, some who reviewed this beer were disappointed that those notes described on the beer were not as much pronounced, but I think it is perfect, this is after all a Belgium triple with a slight twist, Very well done — 10 years ago

10th Anniversary IPA Re-release for the 20th Anniversary Encore Series, big big west coast hops, pine, citrus, peach, orange peel, sweet malt, 10% AVB, Triple IPA, not technically a style, especially back then, adds the new hops now common, Summit and chinook hops, Outstanding back then, and still very impressive, the closest beer to compare with this is Avery's Maharaja, which is still Outstanding as well — 9 years ago

Ok. Pronounced Strawberry notes alsoExit 4 American triple. A bit to much for me. Still solid — 10 years ago
Quite good. Doesn't really seem like a barley wine to me beyond the ABV. Intense, syrupy, but nonetheless balanced. Like a triple IPA. It was so good with Häagen-Dazs vanilla ice cream that I contemplated making a milkshake out of it. — 10 years ago
Very well balanced. Can't wait for next year! — 11 years ago

Can you make Stone's Ruinten even better, yes! This California release only is the same Ruinten with added orange peel and vanilla Bean, gives it a smoother taste profile, adds a cask taste and sweetness, Outstanding!!! — 9 years ago
Havent been really into IPAs lately but this was spot on. Citrus, crisp, and some piney and dank hoppiness. — 9 years ago
Absolutely tasty. Beautiful toffee sweetness thick brown colour in the glass. Lingers in the mouth for days, perfect for a fire and nibbles. — 9 years ago
Slightly bitter Bret intermingled with slightly tropical hop flavors. Not too big or overpowering, either. A nice balance is achieved in this medium-bodied brew. Well done. — 10 years ago
