Overview Stone Levitation Ale has the
distinction of having the lowest
alcohol content of any of the
regular Stone Brewing offerings,
coming in a full percent lower than
Stone Pale Ale. They haven’t made
any concession with hops, though.
Flavors and aromas There’s no
mistaking the big citrus and resin
notes of the nose for anything
other than an American pale ale.
But the light body prompted one
taster to compare this to an
English bitter brewed with
American hops. Whatever the
provenance, this went over well
with our tasters, who were won
over by this beer. Long lingering
hop bitterness in the finish might
challenge some drinkers, but we
approve.
