Not Wrestling

Stone Brewing is getting into the science of Zumology with their new “monstrously refreshing” IPA with Zumo hops from Segal Ranch as the lead.  Their will be some Mosaic in there as well if you want an extra bitter boost.  Per Stone protocol, this will be a higher ABV beer hitting 7.5%.

Fight On

USC can Big10 tailgate properly with the new , Stone Fight On! Pale Ale. Stone Brewing will be the official USC Athletics beer will be available for purchase the week of August 14, 2023.

The Pale Ale with “a balanced blend of tropical and citrusy hop flavors” will “be distributed throughout Southern California at stores, bars, and restaurants and onsite at the Los Angeles Colosseum and the Galen Center, home of the USC Trojans.”

Maybe I can get Linfield University to have an official beer made by Heater-Allen.

A Cold Stone

OSide – Now I love shortening names and utilizing acronyms as much as many ‘Mericans but I might have steered clear of that as a name for a foray into Cold IPA.  But back to the beer, I am intrigued as to how Stone Brewing will handle the Cold IPA craze in their latest One Batch Dispatch.

Stone Day – SourFest

One of my favorite beer experiences was attending early SourFest at Stone Brewing’s garden campus in Escondido.  It was just the right amount of sours poured for plenty of choice and not too crowded either, though we did get a staggeringly high amount of drink tickets.

Makes me wonder what it would be like to return in 2023 to see what the sour world has to offer.
