Dorado Double IPA

Grapefruit and earthy hop nose; orange rind, sweet caramel, and pepper tongue. Big, big bite!

Mixtape Ale

Stone 16th Anniversary Celebration – Sample #10 Last one! Stone Mixtape. Considering that this week included @MixtapeSD and a whole lot of memories, unclassifyable.

UpRYEsing IPA

Stone 16th Anniversary Celebration – Sample #9 Pleasant rye/malt nose. Sweet and bitter. This one might just be the perfect closer.

Chesebro IPA

Stone 16th Anniversary Celebration – Sample #8 Delicate at first, but quickly turns palate-wreckingly bitter. Wow!

Monkey Knife Fight

Stone 16th Anniversary Celebration – Sample #7 Grassy nose, sweet cereals on the palate. Can’t resist a monkey. Or a fight.

Sour Wench Blackberry Ale

Stone 16th Anniversary Celebration – Sample #6 Fruity nose, blackberry jam on the tongue, and then sour kicks in. Pucker up!

Liberation IPA

Stone 16th Anniversary Celebration – Sample #5 Nice and bitey. Tons of hop character. Bitter finish. Foamy by far.

LeVariation Ale

Stone 16th Anniversary Celebration – Sample #4 Stone LeVariation to go with 40 minute wait $5 onion rings. Spirit-lifting and hoppy.

Belgian Style Yeti Imperial Stout

Stone 16th Anniversary Celebration – Sample #3 Sweet black coffee, and more delicate and refreshing than expected.

Trade Winds Tripel

Stone 16th Anniversary Celebration – Sample #2 Bananas and spice on the nose. Carries through to palate with bubblegum joining the party.
