It's actually pretty good. It's 9.1% abv, but you cannot even tell. I guess that's dangerous, in a sense. What does bug the **** out of my is that it comes in these 4 12oz cans that are skinny like red bull cans. ******* hipsters. Put your **** in tall boys or bottles like everyone else.

the beauty of having connections to a beer/wine distributor at a restaurant

[njx9]

that looks like all the liquor stores here. unless you're saying you got it 'cheap', in which case i hate you.

[Rob S]

Are you positive they're twelves, Brent? In NY the 4 pack absolutely comes with 16.9 oz cans.

Considering I am holding one in my hand, yes. I thought these were 16 because all the others were 16. My guess is that, due to its ABV and my state's weird laws, it had to be 12 oz? **** if I know.

EDIT: regular Stone Pale Ale is pretty average.

That blows. I agree regarding Stone Pale Ale and Pale Ales in general. I do go through phases of really enjoying them though. Full Sail makes a pretty good one that I enjoy at all times.

i really like pale ales when i just want something basic. it's like a coors light substitute.

That's a good analogy. They're the Coors Light of this thread.

I tend to prefer WC beers too.....there are just so many good breweries out there compared to everywhere else, at least in my experience that has been the case.

it's not my fault that the east coast mostly makes mediocre beers, with the rare gems, while the western us makes fantastic beers with rare complete failures!
