Stone Cali-Belgique Belgian IPA

Stone Cali-Belgique Belgian IPA 6.9% ABV, 22oz  (this is stone IPA w/ Belgian yeast)
Beer Advocate A- 
A: This beer pours a crystal clear golden amber hue with a lofty, sticky white head. 
S:  Refreshing fruity (hints of peach, mango, and grapefruit) and spice notes with noticeable Belgian yeast combine with biscuity malts and citrusy/piney hops.
T:  Grapefruity hops, caramel malts and light spice round out the palate. 
M:  Medium bodied with adequate carbonation.  Refreshing and crisp with a dry finish.  
D:  Very drinkable for a hop head, but just a little high to truly session this Belgian IPA.
Food Pairings:  Brat Burger, Sausages, stilton, bone marrow, rocket salad.
