At Stone Company Store Pasadena, we equally revere ALL Stone Brewing Co. beers, even the ones we have on draft 365 days a year, as they are all most definitely out-of-the-ordinary. With that said, occasionally we are able to offer full-on extraordinary beers, i.e., ones that are rare, one-off, vintage, barrel-aged, experimental, etc. Generally, we have one of these "specialty" draft beers come online every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, with a "specialty" bottle release every Sunday. Here's a small sample of the extraordinary beers headed our way in the next couple weeks.

Note: for all to-go beer (e.g., growlers, bottles, kegs), everyone in your party must be 21+ and in possession of valid, government-issued ID.

Tuesday, November 3

Stone Barrel-Aged Brown Ale w/ Balaton Sour Cherries, a definite fan favorite, comes back on tap today. Slightly tart, fairly oaky, showing some delicious signs of (good, age-related) oxidation, it’s the beer to prove to your wine friends that craft beer can be equally as complex, if not more so, than their beverage of choice.

Thursday, November 5

Today is International Stout Day, and we’ll be celebrating with such specialties & rarities as Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens - Liberty Station StormBrain (a bourbon barrel-aged imperial oatmeal porter), Stone w00tstout 2.0 (a partially bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout brewed with stone-ground dark chocolate, rye, and pecans from 2014), 2015 Stone CHAI-SPICED Imperial Russian Stout, & classic 2015 Stone Imperial Russian Stout.

Friday, November 6

Stone 20th Anniversary Encore Series: 08.08.08 Vertical Epic Ale, a re-brewed version of the 2008 Belgian strong golden ale that inspired our Stone Cali-Belgique IPA, comes back on tap today for tasters, growler fills, and can-growler fills.

Sunday, November 8

A brand-new 2015 Stone Collaboration, 4 Hands/Bale Breaker/Stone Sorry Not Sorry IPA, comes onto the scene today in 22oz bottles & on draft. It’s an imperial IPA (surprise!) brewed with peaches (now, that part was probably ACTUALLY a surprise). No limits will be placed on bottles or growler fills.
