So after reading many websites for suggestions of a good IIPA, it seemed the Stone Ruination was a good place to start.
My kind SWMBO was kind enough to pick me up a six-pack at the store last night. Had my first bottle and must say I was a little disappointed ... and maybe confused.
It was a hop-bomb for sure (+100IBUs) and quite refreshing, but definitely had a grassy taste to it, which I didnt find too appealing.
Is this typical of these huge IIPAs, or did I maybe get a bum batch?
I loved the bitterness, but the taste and aroma wasn't great. Anyone else experience this?
