Here is a father’s toast to his son. Brewed with cocoa nibs and lactose, Hunter boasts a creamy texture and rich chocolate flavor. Vanilla, roast, and caramel sweetness are met with a bright hop bitterness. Complex enough to pair with dinner or dessert. Suave enough to skip the meal altogether. A chip off the old block, alright.
Less info ▴Our English barleywine with a sweet, malty body and boozy finish made with Coffee, Toasted Coconut, Cacao Nibs, and Macadamia Nuts. The adjuncts conceal much of the booze, cloaking it in a thick, chewy, and decadent body.
Less info ▴Less dry and roasty than the first iteration, but still packed full of delicious notes of toffee and dark chocolate. Full bodied with sweet malt notes for balance.
Less info ▴A HUGE Imperial Stout that weighs in at an impressive 12% ABV! As if that's not enough, we added pounds of coffee for a little extra kick.
Less info ▴ABV varies from 8-10%. The malty sweetness, fruitiness, unique hop aroma and high original gravity of Old Foghorn® Barleywine Style Ale is to beer much as port is to wine. Old Foghorn® is brewed based on traditional English barleywine methods. It is highly hopped, fermented with a true top-fermenting ale yeast, carbonated by a natural process called "bunging" to produce champagne-like bubbles, and dry-hopped with additional Cascade hops while it ages in our cellars. Made only from “first wort,” the rich first runnings of an all-malt mash, three mashes are required to produce just one barleywine brew. Introduced in 1975, Old Foghorn® Ale was the first modern American barleywine sparking renewed interest domestically and in Britain. The name was derived from the English tradition of attaching the word “old” to barleywines to denote their tradition, intensive brewing process and cellar aging, and “Foghorn” gave it a San Francisco flair. Today, Old Foghorn® Ale is best enjoyed sipped after a meal.
Less info ▴This is an aggressive ale. You probably won’t like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate an ale of this quality and depth. We would suggest that you stick to safer and more familiar territory–maybe something with a multi-million dollar ad campaign aimed at convincing you it’s made in a little brewery, or one that implies that their tasteless fizzy yellow beverage will give you more sex appeal. Perhaps you think multi-million dollar ad campaigns make things taste better. Perhaps you’re mouthing your words as you read this.
Less info ▴Brewed with cocoa nibs, vanilla & almonds for decadent, chocolatey flavor blended with a soft & fluffy vanilla sweetness & complimented by a subtle nuttiness from the almonds.

A tribute to the Old Fashioned cocktail, this sour beer interpretation captures notes of bourbon and fresh orange peel with a complex botanical bouquet and soft malt sweetness.
Less info ▴Time to fire up those “100” and “bomb” emojis. This TIPA is jam packed with two of our favorite hops, Citra and Nelson. This hop combo creates a big sweet, tropical citrus aroma. The flavor follows with strong notes of orange rinds and mango, that pop with the beer’s full-bodied mouthfeel. All the aroma and flavor in this beer play together to hide the 10% ABV.
Less info ▴This beer was brewed to satisfy hopheads craving dank aroma and bitterness, with a touch of the juiciness this style is known for. This beer has complex aromas bursting with citrus, tangerine, pine and tropical fruits.

Less info ▴Two inflammatory words...one wild drink. Nectar imprisoned in a bottle. An anything-but-delicate blend of sharp hoppiness and fruity aroma, this beer is a life-changing backyard knife-fight for your palate. Once you’ve had a Raging Bitch, everything else pales in comparison. Fermented with a volcano-like Belgian yeast strain called “El Diablo,” Raging Bitch earned its polarizing name from the aggressively active nature of the yeast—unleashed, untamed, unbridled...and in heat. Enjoy its golden glow and white foaming head alongside bold flavors like spicy BBQ wings, blue cheese salads, or that bag of family-sized Cool Ranch Doritos you’re going to destroy later while binge-watching Netflix.
Less info ▴The Fear has bold pumpkin and spice flavor complimented by graham cracker and chocolate notes.
Less info ▴An oasis of flavor in the desert of normalcy, this cocktail-inspired imperial gose is brewed with agave and sea salt then aged in tequila barrels. When it emerges we hit it with a healthy dose of prickly pear extract, lending the liquid its flamboyant fuchsia glow and mellowing out the tangy tartness with hints of berry and melon. It’s no mirage, it’s the real deal. ¡Más Agave Clásica Prickly Pear!
Less info ▴Evil Cousin is Heretic's take on a West coast imperial IPA. This beer is a bold, in-your-face hop monster. It has a light, easy drinking malt character that allows the hops to stand out. The hop character in this beer is intentionally on the dank side; big, sticky, and aggressive. This beer is for those of you who can't get enough hops. Join us on the dank side.
Less info ▴Bourbon Barrel-Aged Q.O.R.I.S. takes our Quadruple Oatmeal Russian Imperial Stout to a whole new level. The high alcohol content of this beer extracts wonderful and assertive flavors and aromas from the barrels, adding great depth and complexity, leading to ultimate satisfaction.

Going light years over the top of Ohio’s old beer/alcohol limit, Gavel Slammer is brewed to celebrate Hoppin’ Frog putting the hammer down for freedom in brewing Ohio’s beer! Because of our efforts, on August 26th 2016 we were presented the actual gavel used in the final Senate session that removed Ohio’s alcohol limit on beer!!

Less info ▴A beautiful beer with a a very special history, its origins rooted in the Netherlands as well as Italy. Late 2012 we brewed this beer for the first time with Kees Bubberman when he was still a brewer for Emelisse Brewing and we calles it Mikkie = Stout (stout also means naughty in Dutch). During spring 2013, Peter van der Arend (Morebeer Brewing) met the Italian brewer Giovanni Campari (Birrificio del Ducato) at the Gronings Beer Festival. It promised to be the start of a beautiful friendship. Late 2013, Peter flew to Italy with a recipe per Giovanni's request. Peter had asked Kees for approval to use the recipe of Mikkie = Stout. And now that the beer was brewed in Italy, it was renamed to Mikkie = Cattivella, which is Italian for naughty. The years have passed and Giovanni has now sold his brewery. Therefore we had to search for a new brewing partner and location. And now Mikkie = Cattivella has come home. We are brewing this wonderful beer at our friends from Poesiat & Kater, right here in Amsterdam. We already have a history with Poesiat & Kater as we also brew our other housebeer with them, the awardwinning Dutch Eagle!

Less info ▴Especially for the 5 year anniversary of the Beertemple in Amsterdam we were asked to create an awesome westcoast style IIPA. Our answer was the big fat double 5 IPA. With 5 hop varieties and some love the beer got a warm welcome! However, the owner of the Beertemple was so impressed he decided to have the beer as his new house-beer! Eventually it became the house beer of the Beertemple, ‘t Arendsnest & Craft&Draft; all located in Amsterdam. The Big Fat Double 5 was given the Gold medal in the Dutch beer challenge for best Imperial IPA of the Netherlands.
Less info ▴Dragon’s Milk White is a nod to New Holland Brewing’s 20 years of barrel-aging expertise and commitment to innovation in the name of flavor.

Less info ▴Aged through four seasons and from a blend of the top Bourbons around, this Ten Fidy has morphed into a monster of cranked up flavor. Espresso, burnt sugar, rich chocolate, caramel notes are now driving alongside the vanilla, oak, bourbon from the barrel and been smoothed out during maturation. Even at 12.9% (75 IBUs) it is cool and drinkable, letting each sip add more and more complexity.
Less info ▴Nothing better than Galaxy except more Galaxy. This DDH version is hopped aggressively with choice Victorian Galaxy.
Less info ▴Double Dry Hopped Double Mosaic Dream is our standard Double Mosaic dry hopped a second time with a mosaic lupulin powder. Lupulin powder is a new hop product that is similar to our standard hops but with all the extra plant filler stripped away. It’s pure hops and it’s awesome.
Less info ▴Our standard Mylar Bags which is hopped with Amarillo, Galaxy, Citra, Mosaic and El Dorado and crushes it with Citra and Mosaic lupulin powders and more Galaxy.
Less info ▴Unfairly packed with some of the greatest hops: our hand selected Citra, Strata and Riwaka. Can't go wrong.
Less info ▴All you gotta do is pop the can and you've got greens at the ready. Mosaic, Simcoe and Nelson are one of the best combos around. Add a hint of Sabro for its crazy tropical fruit and coconut character. All the hops are hand selected for their incredible aromatics.
Less info ▴Depending on how you look at it, it's either the bane of the DC culinary scene or a late night savoir. Either way you are going to need two plates and bunch of napkins to make it through this late night munchie session of Galaxy, Motueka and El Dorado hops.
Less info ▴Pouring a pale yellow w/ a fluffy, white head, this classic, crisp pilsner is brewed w/ lightly kilned malt & Noble hops. Sloop Pils has a medium-light body & a bold, floral bouquet w/ a refreshingly crisp finish.
Less info ▴A New England style Double IPA hopped with Simcoe, Nelson, and Moutere hops.
Less info ▴Our style of brewing has always been about taking chances. It’s an extension of our “What if” mentality, wherein we ask ourselves what would happen if we did things differently in the brewhouse, such as fermenting with a different strain of yeast or, in the case of this beer, incorporating whole-leaf green tea imported from Japan. The answer, embodied in this IPA when we first released it in 2011, was something truly magnificent, delicious and well worth brewing again. But what if we changed it up a bit? This time around, we exchanged Pacifica hops from New Zealand for Helga hops from Australia. The result is an IPA that’s as bright, herbaceous and bitingly hoppy as the one that’s had our fans requesting its return ever since its depletion from store shelves, but with a modern, hop-driven twist that makes this second draft unique and tasty in its own right.
Less info ▴It was 25 years ago that we planted our flag in North County San Diego. We showed up to a modest, empty warehouse with some mighty big dreams. We thought people deserved a world with better beer, and were determined to be part of a cultural transformation we believed could happen… even though few others shared our vision. This massive triple IPA is another important milestone on our continuing journey. Speaking of journeys, for reasons you may guess, our 25th Anniversary Celebration in 2021 will be a bit understated for such a monumental anniversary, so we’ve decided to hold our big event in 2022 with the Stone 25+1 Years In The Making Anniversary Celebration. After a quarter of a century and quite a few twists and turns, we’re still here. Here for hops. Here for quality. Here for making great mistakes. Here for more good times. Here for another round. We thank you sincerely for the years of support and pledge that we will, as always, strive to live up to the reasons for your loyalty!
Less info ▴Stone Xocoveza Tres Leches combines the inspiration of Oaxacan Hot Chocolate and Tres Leches treats in an imperial stout that’s smooth, creamy and intensely indulgent. Made from all that’s good about the holidays, Stone Xocoveza is brewed with chocolate, coffee, Pasilla peppers, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. At the pop of the can, the aroma is intense – cinnamon and spice up front with lingering coffee, caramel and sweet vanilla. It is a lively blend of flavors. Sweet spices are balanced with rich and creamy chocolate. Mild roast coffee flavor shines through and vanilla enhances the intense combination. Pasilla peppers impart a light hint of heat in the finale. With all that complexity, the beer is surprisingly bright on the palate, with just a touch of the residual sweetness that all the decadent flavors imply. Like a slice of Grandma’s tres leches cake and a sip of Oaxacan Hot Chocolate, the result is creamy, intensely flavorful and silky smooth.

A dark base blending hefty amounts of Chocolate Malt, Roasted Barley, and Midnight Wheat creates a robust, jet black beer softened with additions of Flaked Oats. Extended aging in Vanilla Barrels -- when combined with a purposeful addition of Bourbon Barrel-Aged Waypost -- creates complex layers of pleasing Vanilla sweetness with warming notes of cinnamon & caramelized sugar. Available for a limited time starting in March 2021 to celebrate The Virginia Beer Company's 5 Year Anniversary. #ThisIsTheWay

A fresh and fruity concoction not dulled by any sweetening, this off-dry cider is my best-seller, and for good reason.

Motor oil consistency, hellishly smooth yet divinely burnt and vinous. The first sip coats your palate with a palatial charred fruit and chocolate blanket. Alcohol burn wiggles its way down your throat with a thick body
Less info ▴Each hurried breath crystallizes upon contact with the brisk evening air. A chill creeps down the spine quickening your pulse - hastening your fear.

Less info ▴What’s in a name? Sometimes the simplest can be the most descriptive, and in this case, derisive and divisive! After much internal debate (ad nauseum! Bourb[KY]n, anyone?), we decided a single letter change was the best way to embody the bourbon barrel-aging that adds layers of complexity to an already exquisitely spiced pumpkin porter. First released in 2014, Pump[KY]n is the 3rd installment in our Annual Barrel Series, which also includes Uncle Jacob’s Stout, Rumpkin, and Tweak Coffee Stout.

Less info ▴Rice and Beans features the same base beer as Or Xata (our take on Horchata), brewed with a heavy dosing of rice, cinnamon and vanilla along with lactose for that extra creamy character. We then add in fresh coffee beans from Tierra Mia. The result is a delightful balance of roasty and sweet, the perfect pairing like rice & beans.
Less info ▴The Grade is in. It’s built on the backbone of a rich, cold-fermented baltic porter made popular in countries bordering the Baltic Sea. Similar to an imperial porter but distinctly different, the baltic porter style is heralded for being full-bodied, roasty and smooth, with overtones of toffee, coffee, caramel, chocolate and dark fruit. We take it one step further and hammer it home with the bold, sweet flavors of maple syrup and a touch of fenugreek, placing it in a different, experimental class entirely. The Grade is not your average baltic porter, and that’s A-OK in our book.

Then additional aging was done in a used Bourbon barrel from Black Canyon Distillery used to make their Colorado straight Bourbon whiskey, "Old Blue". In honor of this collaboration and the sad fact that Black Canyon is no longer in existence we decided to name this beer after the Bourbon that came from this barrel.
Less info ▴Sour Brown ale with cherries and Brettanomyces. Aged for over a year in red wine barrels. Subtle malt flavors of caramel, chocolate, and dried fruit and a gentle conditioning balance the tartness. 1st edition in an ongoing collaboration with The Community Tap in Greenville, SC.

Literally meaning “remembrance of a loved one” in Hawaiian, Halia was brewed in memory of the dear friend of one of our brewers who loved peaches. Malts: Pilsner, 2-Row & Torrified Wheat Hops: Amarillo
Less info ▴100% Pilsner malt boiled for 6 hours, hopped liberally with low alpha crystal hops, and open fermented with several domestic yeasts. Keg conditioned for a softer carbonation experience.
Less info ▴Detritivore was made by adding the same cherries that were used to make Montmorency vs. Balaton to fresh beer in stainless steel and allowing the combined beer and fruit to referment to dryness. This was the same technique that we originally used to make La Vie en Rose with the raspberries from Atrial Rubicite. As with La Vie en Rose, the second refermentation of the fruit results in subtler, more delicate flavors, as compared with the more intense flavors that result from the initial refermentation. Detritivore is also among the first Jester King beers to be brewed with aged hops that were matured for an extended period of time in a horse barn approximately 300 yards from the brewery. Aged hops are traditionally used in the production of authentic Belgian Lambic. The aging process preserves the antiseptic properties of the hops, which serve to fend off unfriendly microorganisms, while significantly reducing the bittering components. Detritivore is fermented using native yeast and bacteria from the Texas Hill Country, but is not spontaneously fermented, as our brewers actively introduce our house blend of saccharomyces, native wild yeast, and souring bacteria to the wort, rather than relying on inoculation by ambient, airborne microorganisms. The grist for Detritivore was composed of malted barely and malted wheat. It is 5.5% alcohol by volume, with a finishing gravity of 1.000 and is 3.4 pH at the time of bottling.
Less info ▴We're pleased to introduce Fearless Traveler, our collaboration with Cervecería Granizo in Quilpué, Chile! Fearless Traveler is a farmhouse ale brewed with Merkén and refermented with fruit from the prickly pear cactus. Merkén is a blend of ground smoked chilis, toasted coriander and salt. Fearless Traveler was brewed in October when we were visited in Texas by our good friends Óscar and Germán from Granizo. They brought the Merkén with them from Chile, and we sourced the prickly pear from Texas. Óscar and Germán represent what's best in brewing when it comes to international friendship and warmth. It was an honor to host them and call them friends. Fearless Traveler is 6.5% alcohol by volume and was naturally conditioned in bottles and kegs.

Less info ▴Blended cherry farmhouse ale. Two oak barrels of beer spontaneously fermented and matured on second use cherries blended with a farmhouse ale fermented and conditioned on Montmorency cherries.
Less info ▴This is our organic kriek or tart cherry beer, a barrel-aged West Flanders style Red Ale with two pounds of fruit added per gallon of beer. Both sweet and tart Oregon cherries are added to our oak aged Far West Flaming during the aging process with a combination of several yeast strains and lactic bacteria to develop a secondary fermentation. The crystal malts, oak tannins, and fruit developed into a soft well rounded beer of Burgundian character. The beer will increase in acidity as it ages providing additional character.
Less info ▴This sour wit is the second beer in our Conversion Northwest Sour Ale series. It is a Belgian style white beer brewed in the farmhouse tradition and opened to fermentation from a variety of wild yeast and lactic bacteria. The Conversion series represents our transition to wild ales; tart and juicy with lots of traditional farmhouse goodness - Our conversion to the wild side continues...
Less info ▴We are releasing our 4th Anniversary beer, a sour ale aged on ginger. This brew is refreshing with a lemon citrus aroma. The ginger is just enough to give this lightly sour ale an added dimension of flavor that keeps you coming back for more. When you get your hands on a bottle of the ginger goodness, you’ll likely ask yourself how we got all that flavor into that bottle. Well, it wasn’t easy. There was plenty of slicing and blending. Then the puréed ginger was added to our sour base and allowed to age until it reached the right balance. You will find the 4th Anniversary packaged in 16.9 oz bottles and available in 1/2 and 1/6 barrel kegs.
Less info ▴A mixed fermentation Saison aged on fresh hibiscus, lemon verbena and rose geranium, all hand-picked from the beautiful gardens of barefoot botanicals. We started with our selected stocks of mature Saison from French oak barrels and blended our cold-steeped botanical tea to produce a fragrant and floral mixed-fermentation medley. This bottle is a collaboration between us and our friends at Brick Lane, who flew all the way from Japan to forage these seasonal blooms with us.
Less info ▴An oak-fermented sour ale conditioned on blueberry, peach and vanilla bean. This fruity liquid cobbler consists of a choice blend of mixed-fermentation sour ale from our Blendery. We initially fermented it in French Oak casks for 8 months, then transferred to stainless tanks for two months to condition. This beer boasts firm acidity with fruit forward intensity and subtle spice notes of cinnamon and vanilla.
Less info ▴Cross Fertilization is a Golden Sour with unmalted wheat and dry hopped with aged Summit and Ultra hops. We took a few elements from Lambic production to see how they would fair being implemented into our process! The result is an extremely interesting and delicious sour beer, with a great traditional farmhouse funk and balanced acidity.
Less info ▴Our modern interpretation of a Kvass style bread beer. 200 lbs of bread from Field & Fire Bakery were used in the mash. We then fermented in stainless with cultures captured from flora at Taum Sauk mountain in Missouri. We bottled after a 3 month slumber in oak. This is our first beer fermented from 100% wild sourced yeast. Brewed with our good friends at Black Project Spontaneous and Wild Ales in Denver, CO.
Less info ▴Barrel Aged Dark Sour with Madcap Hunapu Coffee. We teamed up with our favorite local coffee roaster for this one to match the base beer with the perfect coffee. After trying 4 different options from Madcap, we agreed on their Hunapu roast from Guatemala. The coffee has notes of chocolate and citrus which blend perfectly with our base dark sour beer. 778 bottles produced.
Less info ▴This tart, witty release kicks off our Foeders with Friends collaboration series. Our good friends at Jester King came to town to brew a sour wit ale with spices to christen one of our new-to-us foeders at Bruery Terreux. We designed a recipe with bitter orange peel and coriander and set it to ferment and age with our mixed house culture and Bavarian wit yeast in the designated foeder for four months. Using the Jester King house culture for bottle conditioning, Bouffon features some of the classic notes you’d look for in a wit, including banana, pear, vanilla, bubblegum, white pepper, lemon and a signature yeast profile. It also shines with the wild character from its cultures and collaborators at Jester King and Bruery Terreux.
Less info ▴Oude Tart is a Flemish-Style Red Ale aged in red wine barrels for 18 months. It's pleasantly sour with hints of leather, dark fruit and toasty oak. While this is one of the more classic beer styles that we make, it's not a style that you can find too often in the United States. Originating in style from the Flanders region of Belgium, near the French border, this dark, sour ale has roots deep in brewing history and predates most of the ales that have become popular in contemporary culture. We're doing our best to keep the tradition alive by brewing and aging this beer here on the west coast.
Less info ▴Tart of Darkness is a traditional stout that we aged in used oak barrels from The Bruery that had previously housed beers such as Cuivre or Black Tuesday. We then brought them over to Bruery Terreux, added our special blend of souring bacterias and wild yeasts and watched nature take its course. The result is a perfectly tart yet awesomely dark and roasty, sour stout. Not a style you will see very often, and in our opinion, not a style seen often enough. This unique stout has notes of tart plums, roasted coffee, vanilla and oak.
Less info ▴Serpent is the first beer of its kind, and one of the coolest things either brewery has ever done. We went to Oliver’s Cider in Hereford seeking their lees, the natural wild yeasts that ferment their apples into great traditional ciders. We brewed a robust Belgian-inspired golden ale at Thornbridge, added the lees in barrels, aged the beer for more than a year, and bottle conditioned it. Now Serpent emerges dry, tart, firm, fine and funky, a full expression of our friendship, great British brewing, American boldness, and Herefordshire countryside.
Less info ▴Made using wild yeast captured in our hop yard and aged in oak for over two years
Less info ▴Blender's Insurance + Nectarines is a 6% ABV blend of Foeder aged saison and barrel aged golden sours refermented on 3 pounds per gallon of Ovation Nectarines from Hotchkiss, Colorado, and then bottle conditioned 9 months prior to release. Both beers were made exclusively for the brewery's From the Vault bottle club and only 300 bottles of each were produced.
Less info ▴Foeder-Aged sour red ale fermented with Cherries Cherry Go Lightly is the first beer to fill our Foeder and is inspired by the friends who helped us source this barrel monstrosity. As the name does not imply, we used a total of 2000 pounds of Montmorency cherries and multiple oak vessels to mature this Old World inspired ale. Friends inspire us, support us, and share in our love for this craft. This beer is for them.
