My verson of the "Guess The Stone IPA Clone" game

Brewed a Stone IPA clone (my version is called "Stone Mountain IPA" b/c i live in GA.) and finally got around to taking some comparison shots. This one is pretty easy, based on the head size, but still fun!

I nailed the color almost perfectly! They are both actually much clearer than the photo is showing...i think the glasses have frosted over. As far as taste, I think i nailed it, as my amateur palette certainly can't tell a difference!

Anyway, here you go. Let me know what y'all think?

You nailed the color for sure!

Aroma is very close too.

Nice job on the color!

Haha, I was trying to decide if I wanted to have my last Stone IPA from the fridge tonight and this definitely did it.

LOL. HBT drives me to random weekday homebrew drinking quite frequently.
