In the spirit of all the exploratory missions deployed across the galaxy — be they spacecraft, Viking or other — we’re constantly probing the world of beer back here on Earth. That quest has brought us to this latest creation, which comes from our brewing team at Stone Brewing – Napa. With a haze reminiscent of some far-off nebula, and further complimented with the juicy flavors of Ella and Citra…
In collaboration with Metallica, this beer represents the cataclysmic collision of two uncompromising supernatural forces. It's a crisp and refreshing Pilsner that, much like the band, transcends genres, shatters preconceptions and challenges convention.
Novice, enthusiast, geek, diehard. In most cases, you choose your level. The novice will say “Stone only makes tons of IPAs.” The enthusiast will say “That’s true, except for the word ‘only’.”The geek will memorize hop varieties, release dates, origins, ABVs, IBUs, and every other conceivable detail. But the diehard? People in that category will tell you they didn’t choose IPAs. IPAs chose them.…
No lemons, no melon. Though there is a good amount of orange peel and tangerine in this one, but we’ll get to that in a moment. First we will refer you back to February 2, 2002 (otherwise known as 02.02.02) when we released the first of our now deified decade-spanning Stone Vertical Epic Ale series. The next was released on 03.03.03, then 04.04.04 all the way up until 12.12.12. As we…
West Coast hops. East Coast haze. Hawaiian inspiration. This ridiculously tasty double IPA combines influence from across the country with passion fruit, orange and guava into one of the most flavorful beers we’ve ever released. One could call it a perfect storm, we’d say it’s Peak Conditions. Either way, our fans turned out in numbers to vote for this beer’s return – and we’re more than happy to…
Every year, many people (for varying reasons) count down the days until April 20th. It seems the date holds a special place in the hearts of certain folks. For us, the weeks leading up mean one of our favorite Stone Enjoy By IPA beers is available. But for the first time in a century, when April 2020 arrives, the calendar will read 4/20 for an entire month. That’s 30 full days of celebrating the…
A few of our brewers took a side trip to the famous Tianshan Tea City market to experience the legend themselves. They were blown away. Inspired, they began experimenting back home, learning how well the delicate, floral qualities of these teas worked in combination with certain hop varieties. This imperial IPA loaded with White Tea is the result of that bountiful trip and the resulting…
While this beer is not a fruit-added IPA, our beloved hops can achieve sublime levels of fruity flavor and aroma all on their own. This beer combines the tropical, complex and much-loved Mosaic hops with an intriguing newcomer, Sabro, and its notes of stone fruit & coconut. This is a beer for your evening’s staycation - a refreshing new perspective on something familiar.
