Stone Arrogant Bastard

Style: Strong Ale
Container:
 22oz Bomber
Glassware:
Spiegelau Snifter and Firestone Walker Tulip
Notes: Nose: Malty  caramel with apricot, boozy. Mike got “sewage” or bad water” Taste: Better beers have come since this.  Taste: Malt and caramel comes through as it did on the nose. There are hops for sure. 
Overall Nerdsense Rating
: 3.50/5 — We were thrown off by how much our tastes have changed given this was one of the craft beers that got us really loving it.

 

Stone Oaked Arrogant Bastard

Style: Strong Ale
Container:
 22oz Bomber
Glassware:
Spiegelau Snifter and Firestone Walker Tulip
Notes: Nose: Oak (obviously), maple which adds sweetness on top of bourbon. Taste: Smooth and balanced. Sweetness and mellow compared to the normal Arrogant
Overall Nerdsense Rating: Nose
: 4.25/5

 

**BLEND** (Shaun’s favorite part!) 4/5!

You lose the oak and it kind of makes the regular Arrogant a little more smooth and tasty
