We make no apologies for the fact that we love brewing bold, flavorful, hop-centric beers. Naturally, we welcomed the opportunity to work with two amazing craft breweries that share our lupulin-fueled dedication: St. Louis-based 4 Hands Brewing Co., known for its innovative IPAs; and Bale Breaker Brewing Co., whose owners’ family has farmed hops in Washington’s Yakima Valley…
Just like its golden envelope-pushing counterpart, Stone Enjoy By Black IPA is intensely hoppy and should be enjoyed über fresh to experience its vibrant stone and tropical fruit flavors and dankness.
This double IPA’s dark-colored malt canvas comes from German Sinamar and from Patagonia Black Pearl barley, which adds a pleasingly smooth taste. The hop profile is predominantly Australian,…
As I stand here in my office, tasting our very first batch of Stone Enjoy By Black IPA in order to submit my official tasting notes, it’s given me time to reflect on how this beer came about and how the black IPA style has been such an important part of Stone over the last several years.
Back in 2007, I asked (some would…

We definitely do not have any misgivings about revisiting our instantly memorable 2014 collaboration with Heretic Brewing Company and Beachwood Brewing. In the 2016 rebirth of this double IPA, we’ve dialed back the dankness and upped the hop intensity with a new mélange of hops (Idaho 7, Azacca and Motueka). Just like the original, its tropical fruit character, …
Five years of progressively more aggressive hop-fueled exploration produced this precursor to Stone Ruination IPA. It originally hit palates in 2001 but still packs a wallop — loads of piney, resiny, citrusy aromatics and flavors.

There’s nothing simple or run of the mill about this “little pod” harvested from the finicky vines of vanilla orchids found on Indian Ocean islands. The thousands of richly aromatic seeds buried inside each of these plump vanilla fruit pods became our beer-making muse for this porter recipe distinguished by chocolate malt and Madagascar vanilla bean. This latter luxe ingredient imparts a delicate…
It’s only fitting Stone 10th Anniversary IPA returns 10 years after it first altered perceptions of what hoppy beer could be. Its intensely resiny pine character is equally matched by delicious layers of pineapple and mango.
