Here at Stone, I get the privilege of working on some really fun, random projects. Greg will turn to me and say something like, "What if we put a 17 foot tall gargoyle into the inside wall of the Bistro?" From there, I figure out how to make it work and pull the resources and people together to make it happen. Well, another opportunity to have some fun recently presented itself when we decided to…
Hey folks. Greg here with a short word. Question actually. Maybe even riddle.

If you’ve watched our CEO & Co-Founder Greg Koch’s speech at the 2009 Craft Brewers Conference, you know that business ethics are hugely important to Stone. While we see business ethics as an essential part of everything we do—from environmental sustainability to charitable giving to collaboration—the business of selling beer can present especially…
