After a great surf session on a beautiful beach, you emerge exhausted and happy from the crystal-clear waters, your wetsuit is already half open and you only want one thing: a cool, refreshing beer. The Ripper Pale Ale from Stone Brewing is exactly what makes this moment perfect. A tangy, refreshing fruit experience that makes you think of iced tea. Light, sparkling and easy-going, like Australia's sweetest surfer girl. The perfect West Coast Pale Ale with a fantastic foamy head and the incomparable taste of green hops, which combines irresistibly with juicy fruit notes.
The surfer girl also looks great in the glass: deep golden with a sun-kissed, light brown head, Stone Ripper is a feast for the eyes. And the nose is also spoiled. The pale ale smells wonderfully of juicy oranges, pineapple and peach. This explosion of fruit is accompanied by a delicate floral note, which contrasts the heavy sweetness with a grassy, slightly herbal tartness. All in all, an aromatic experience that makes you eager to take your first sip. On the palate, the Ripper Pale Ale plays all its fruity cards. Tropical aromas meet green hop notes on the tongue. In the finish, strong malt tones lead to a crisp, clear finish. Overall, the Ripper is very drinkable with a nice bitterness and pleasant carbonation.
