It has been said that gravity sucks…so in the defiance of gravity, Stone Brewing brings us Levitation Ale. The beer promises to bring big flavor at only 4.4% ABV and Stone has yet to disappointment me. (except for the price on their Oaked Arrogant Bastard Ale)
Levitation pours a rusty red color with a thick head of foam. There are lots of strong, complex, aromas coming from my mug, mostly of hops but some toasty malts, too. 
You are hit with some big hop bite and a flood of flavors to fill your mouth. It is only on the finish where you get a cleaner, and smooth finish, but still a tingle from the hops and carbonation. You can pick out some earthy & grainy notes and some yeasty flavors as well; all good.
This is considered an American Amber and is over the top on hops for the style (but I’m good with that). This goes high on my list for a session beer. Thanks again, Stone.
