There was a LOT of talk about what this beer could be. The only survivor from the shipwreck of ideas between Adam Avery, Greg Koch and Thomas Tyrell had been a mutual like for Bamberd, its smoked beers, and Greg's friendship with Mahrs Bräu brewmaster Stephan Michel. With that firm affirmation in hand, a WhatsApp invitation was extended. But still, the…
Stone Sanctimonious IPA represents the elevated state of reverence that Stone extols for the venerable and almighty Hop. Amarillo & Simcoe hops have been anointed to bestow their divine qualities on this sacred brew. This limited release is part of Stone's Hop Worship Seasonal IPA Series... Glory be to those who imbibe it in its freshest form... and faithfully worship thy Hop in the beauty of…
Stone Brewing is pretty much synonymous with hops, and for good reason - we've had a ton of practice crafting complex flavor profiles through the simple balancing of different varieties of these wondrous green buds. While hops are typically downplayed in sour beer styles, we couldn't resist taking the Stone approach and creating a dry-hopped wild ale, bringing two very different traditions…
What better way to commemorate a fresh start than with an uber-fresh beer? This variant of our Enjoy By IPA series features innovative brewing techniques that give it a bright effervescence and a super-dry finish. It makes for a great craft beer alternative to traditional “bubbles,” and it’s still blasted with enough explosive hop flavor to rival any fireworks display. Enjoy its refreshing notes…
Stone Totalitarian Imperial Russian Stout is a thick, rich and sinful beer that’s heavy on the palate and massively aromatic with notes of anise, black currants, coffee and roastiness.
Cellar Notes
Intense coffee characteristics abound from both the dark malts and the espresso, while rich caramel-like and vanilla notes from the bourbon barrel aging adds layers of complexity, a touch of…

Cellar Notes
This profoundly complexed beer will overwhelm all but the most stalwart beer fanatics with its level of intensity. Rich coffee, bitter and milk chocolate characteristics abound, while dark…

Where Stone goes boldly, the Evil Twin goes madly. Put them together in a city like Berlin, mix in the local influence and the result is something brazenly twisted. No other way to describe such a beer as this. Traditionally, the Berliner Weisse style is mildly tart and low ABV. Naturally, neither Stone nor Evil Twin have much of an interest in sticking…

The multi-year journey of this beer began in 2006 at the Craft Brewers Conference in Seattle when our own Greg Koch met and first became friends with Ron Jeffries, Brewmaster of the famed Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales. In 2007, on a trip to Tokyo, Greg by chance encountered Kjetil Jikuin of Norway’s Nøgne-Ø brewery and formed another new friendship. 2008…
We've made a hell of a lot of IPAs since 1996. Some stick around for decades, some for a few years and some are brief visits before becoming fond memories. This IPA was first released in the fall of 2014, yet we've always found it hard to keep it in "retirement." Its bitter, zesty grapefruit peel infusion create a bright accent to notes of pine resin and fresh citrus, and has always been a major…
This exquisite liquid patchwork of more than a dozen hops is a devastatingly fresh double IPA. Freshness is a key component of many beers – especially big, hoppy IPAs – but we've taken it further, a lot further, with this one. We brewed this IPA specifically NOT to last. We've gone to extensive lengths to ensure you get your hands on this beer within an extraordinarily short window, and we've…
