For this version of Stone Enjoy By IPA we thought: We dont always have a filter, so why should our beer? By skipping a step and letting this devastatingly fresh, golden-hued double IPA go un filtered, the beer takes on a hazy appearance and its peach and tropical fruit hop aroma are intensified. So though it may sound like it, this missed step was nomisstep.

Like the other IPAs in this series, this version is brewed specifically NOT tolast.Featured HopsNugget Super Galena Simcoe Delta Target Amarillo Cascade Galaxy Citra Nelson SauvinMotueka & HelgaFlavor ProfileHoppy, lots of stone fruit flavors and yeast-derived fruity esters, dissipating quickly into a finish loaded with hop flavors and bitterness.AppearanceGolden and hazy with a creamy white head.AromaIntense peach, tropical fruit and citrus. The hop dankness is a little muted in this version.OverallAlthough its very similar to our regular version of Stone Enjoy By IPA (it is the same recipe after all), leaving the beer unfiltered results in a perceptible change with the hop aroma. It is more fruit-forward than our filtered version, which has more of a balance between dank and fruit. Its a little challenging to brew, since were used to filtering our beers, but a fun one, with much of the same hop intensity as our original version.
