Yes, we know, it’s February, and we’re just now finishing up our list of accomplishments from 2010. But once you scroll down a bit, you’ll realize why it took us a little time: we did A WHOLE LOT last year. Stone is growing at a geometric rate, and is set to become self-aware in 2014. We will then challenge IBM supercomputer Watson to a game of pinochle, which will be broadcast on network…
Books. You know, actual, physical pieces of paper covered in information, bound between covers. Retro perhaps, but we love those things. Unlike computers, you can hold them close and not feel like you're cuddling our future robotic overlords. And that’s precisely why we’re writing not one, but two, books. That’s where you come in. Before we even tell you what these books are about, you should…

Q: Are you going to use European ingredients? A: Yes, undoubtedly, although we’ll probably…

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…
As a Stone fan, you undoubtedly know and love two of our long-standing special releases: Stone Old Guardian Barley Wine and Stone Imperial Russian Stout. We love them too. We think they’re great beers and both receive sterling marks from BeerAdvocate and RateBeer, the two most prominent…
When we’re right, we’re right. And this, we suppose, is a chance to own up to that. It’s sort of a “They told us so…but we didn’t listen now did we?” It wasn’t broken. Yet, being who we are, we couldn’t resist the urge to tinker. To mess with the “well enough” and not leave it alone. We won’t apologize, anymore than a lion would apologize for downing a gazelle, an orca would apologize for…
For our latest collaboration beer, Stone Head Brewer Mitch Steele joined forces with Jeff Bagby from Pizza Port Carlsbad and Chuck Silva from Green Flash to create Green Flash / Pizza Port Carlsbad / Stone Highway 78 Scotch Ale, a deliciously sweet bottle of malty goodness. Phenomenally smooth, Highway 78’s roasty, caramel notes reminded me of winter nights and camp fires…
