Stone To Release Stochasticty Project Grapefruit Slam IPA Monday
Stone Brewing Co. will be debuting a new series of beer under the Stochasticy Project this monday with Grapefruit Slam IPA. Last summer, Stone packaged a draft only offering known as Stone Ruination Grapefruit Slam, as well as a few casks here and there. Assuming this is the same or close enough, you are in for a treat.
Here is Stone’s description of the beer:
Stochasticity™ Project Grapefruit Slam IPA
STYLE: Double IPA ABV: 8.2% IBUs: 95
India pale ales harness the inherent flavor characteristics of hops to bring forward familiar flavors of pine, resin, spice, and citrus. In some cases, those botanicals are so potent, they exactly mirror specific edibles. Such is the case with Centennial hops, which hail from the Great Northwest and come across on the palate like a mouthful of citrus fruit. That sensation is amplified with this, the first beer introduced via the Stochasticity Project–a double IPA brewed with Centennial, Chinook and Magnum hops as well as an immense dosing of fresh grapefruit peel. The result is over-the-top bittersweet grapefruit intensity that is at once refreshing and bracing in its citrusy bitterness.
