Stone Enjoy By: 5.17.13

I couldn’t let this beer sit in my fridge any longer. Yesterday I came home from work, opened my fridge and was accosted by this beer that refused to let me walk away until I consumed it! I have been thoroughly enjoying the “Enjoy By” series from Stone Brewing Company. These big bad double IPA’s are meant to be consumed fresh and have a recommended drinking date that is about a month after the beer has been bottled. These beers do not make it to every market that Stone serves so if you see one sitting on your local retailers shelf feel lucky and pick one up. Here in Georgia we have had the benefit of receiving a couple of the beers from this series. This particular version of Enjoy By had a great combination of pine and citrus going on in the nose and palate. Man it was tasty. I wish they would release one of these beers for every single day of the year. I would love the obligation of having to drink one every day.

Another Double? Why not.

Founders Double Trouble IIPA

Founders Double Trouble IIPA

IPA’s and IIPA’s rock. That’s a fact. So I thought I’d pop up another one that you should be drinking right now. Founders Double Trouble is a crisp and easy drinking IIPA. This brew smells and tastes wonderful. When you pour it up you get a nose full of grapefruity goodness. The flavor follows up with more of the same but with a bit of tropical/mangoishness (yep, mangoishness is a word) to it. It is a smooth DIPA. It should be on the shelves of your local beer store so you should head on down there when you are done reading this sentence.
