Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale
Stone Brewing Co. | Escondido, California USA
Purchased @
Kegs & Corks - Mansfield, Texas USA
Style: Black IPA
Say ‘hello’ to my little friend! This being my first Black IPA, I’m thinking that the bar has been set high by the folks at Stone Brewery! While at the beer store the other day I needed something to round out the selection that I was purchasing and saw this one out of the corner of my eye. Last bottle, so off with me it went! When I first opened it up I knew I was in for a treat because the aromas were just, well, intoxicating! Definitely one of the finest smelling brews I have yet to enjoy! Being a malt-head this brew is just the right choice; thick, rich, flavorful, awesome. This is one of those fine brews that should be paired up with a juicy porterhouse steak or a succulent rib-eye steak!

There are more brews out there; try some and enjoy the savory adventure.
