Hazy but double, "F*ck My Life" impact IPA!
Stone, who leads the craft beer mecca of San Diego, has done it again!
Hazy (=easy to drink) and double (=strongly bitter) coexist, FML (F*ck My Life = Worst life! ≒ I've lost without knowing!) IPA.
Released exclusively on the East Coast in 2018. The origin of the very unique name with slang uses three words of "Fear.Movie.Lions" drawn on the floor of Stone's brewery in Richmond, Virginia.
The three words are said to be the address of the brewery by what3words, a venture company that provides a service that expresses any address in three English words.
The taste is exactly the West Coast-style gutsy and bitter IPA and the East Coast's easy-to-drink New England style, resulting in an unfiltered IPA with an artistic balance.
The aromas in the beer are surprisingly rich, like being in an orchard during the harvest.
Fresh fruit, juicy hops, hints of pineapple, followed by hints of white sage and pear.
The taste is fresh like freshly squeezed fruit juice, and fruity such as strawberries, grapes, and white sage.
The finish is crisp and moderately bitter.
A Hazy Double IPA where you can fully enjoy the fresh taste of hops.

OVERALL
This is our take on a hazy East Coast Double IPA. Juicy and smooth with just the right touch of West Coast bitterness in the finish. The aroma on this beer is insane and reminds us of getting fresh fruit from a farm stand on the side of the road. Now, make that a farm stand on the side of the road in Yakima, WA during hop harvest. The aroma of fresh hops envelops!
