Originally created by Sr. Manager of Brewing& Innovation Kris Ketcham to commemorate the 2nd anniversary of Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station, this unusual IPA was an instant hit. Our brew system at Liberty Station is known for bringing some of our most style-bending recipes to life, but this one takes it a step further. It’s inspired by two other style “remixes” - a…
We’ve been brewing the Stone Enjoy By IPA series as a celebration of those magical little green buds we call hops since 2012. Brewed to be enjoyed fresh, and to celebrate a date that’s special to many because…you know… Stone Enjoy By 04.20.24 Hazy IPA is blazingly fresh. So take a rip, a sip, or whatever you’d like to call it, and experience the vibrant, glorious dankness that is this beer.…
When you venture down the rabbit hole, things aren’t always what they seem. While this strange and beautiful stout is deceptively light in color, it’s packed with more flavor than seems fathomable to fit inside this 16oz can. Our Innovation Brewer Fritzi Lara Lino concocted this creation along with our Small Batch team using coffee, chocolate, strawberry… and mushrooms. Trust us. Will it make you…
For this version of Stone Enjoy By IPA we thought: “We don’t always have a filter, so why should our beer?” By skipping a step and letting this devastatingly fresh, golden-hued double IPA go unfiltered, the beer takes on a hazy appearance and its peach and tropical fruit hop aroma are intensified. So though it may sound like it, this missed step was no misstep.
Like the other IPAs in this…
Dark as the longest night and heavy as a blanket of snow on the roof, this wonderful creation is rich, roasty and made for slow savoring. It’s the result of taking our much acclaimed Stone Imperial Stout and laying it down in bourbon barrels for a year. It’s worth the wait, and possibly even more so if you can stand to set some aside for next year. Cocoa, coffee and roasted malt flavors are…
"This beer takes hops to the ridiculous" is what we wrote ont he back of our 2nd Anniversary IPA. This year, I wasn't exactly sure how to describe how far we have taken hops. So when brewer Lee walked by as I was writing this label I called out, "Hey Lee! Tell me something I can say about the 3rd Anniversary IPA." Lee stopped for a moment, leaned against the door (it had been a long day of…
This beer takes hops to the ridiculous. Back when our buddy Vinnie Cilurzo was the brewer at Blind Pig, he brewed mega-hopped IPAs to celebrate their anniversaries. Well, since Vinnie isn't at Blind Pig any more, we figured we'd pick up that ball and run with it. This is the same recipe as our already wonderfully hopped IPA, with a crazy level of actual hopping. We brewed just a single batch, so…
Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous Black IPA graced our year-round lineup for a few years before its retirement in 2015. Since then, nearly every single day, we receive multiple emails, phone calls and social media comments from diehard fans of this hoppy and dark delicacy, pleading, begging and sometimes demanding us to bring it back. (Seriously, we tried to add them all up and it was easily into…
We're best known for brewing aggressive, big-character beers, but we love a great sessionable ale as much as anyone. Most beers at the less-weighty end of the spectrum lack flavor and depth as much as they lack high ABVs, but not Stone Levitation Ale! This deep amber brew has a rich maltiness, big hoppy character, citrus overtones, and an impressively modest alcohol content for a beer with so…
Stone Pale Ale is our Southern California take on the classic British ale. Deep amber in color, this beer is a robust and full-flavored interpretation of the traditional style. Its bold malt character is perfectly complemented by a judicious amount of hops, lending it a subtly enticing aroma. This is an ale for those who have learned to appreciate distinctive flavors and have a thirst for…
