Stone 24th Anniversary Rare Beer Celebration
6:30PM - 9:30PM
Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens - Escondido
Event Overview
Every summer for 23 years we’ve celebrated another year of amazing craft beer, bringing together our fans & friends in the industry alike. This year is decidedly different. While a festival in the traditional sense is out of the question, here at Stone we know a thing or two about adapting. We’ve been working hard to devise a plan and are excited to invite you to a reimagined celebration marking 24 years of hops, heart and hard work.
For many fans, one of the most anticipated parts of our annual celebrations is the promise of exclusive access to rare beers. For those die-hards, we’re offering a special session - Stone 24th Anniversary Rare Beer Celebration on Monday, September 21st from 6:30-9:30pm.
In our expansive gardens, you’ll enjoy 20 2oz pre-selected pours of über-rare and hard-to-find beers along with five amazing courses from our kitchen – all from your own appropriately distanced seats. Our brewers and Team Stone will be on hand throughout the evening to guide you through the experience. You’ll also take home a few surprises…
Tickets are $125 ($35 for Designated Drivers) and a limited number of tables for parties of 1, 2, 4 and 6 are available. Please use the Add-On option for any Designated Driver tickets needed. One purchase per party, please – we will not combine multiple parties or purchases, and visiting other parties will not be allowed. Please note, we have limited physical tables of certain sizes, so unfortunately when a party size is sold out, it's sold out.
