Has Greg always had crazy girl eyes, or was that after his extended drug trip?

Also, TIL Stone invented milk stout

Man, that interviewer doesn't understand anything about beer. Totally awesome. "Milk stout...coffee...milk...stout...how do you come up with these names?"

Apparently Stone invented the west coast style IPA.

They also invented hops. Betcha didn't know that.

Have any of these stone collaborations been brewed yet, what ever happened to that super wootstout or whatever? I mean it has been over a year since this crowd funding fiasco went into affect.

I went back to the Indiegogo page, hoping to see that one of the collabs was with Wakefield. Disappointed.

Have they even broken ground on the Richmond facility, where people will eventually be able to pick these beers up?

I was wondering about this as well. It's been radio silence.

I'll get in on the next round of the Indigogo campaign if one of the perks is this shirt:

Whole lot of noise, then silence. And yet they are/did presell a bunch of bottles.

They weren't going to do **** for at least 2 years anyway. Why anyone bought into that interest free loan on beer that is going to suck dick and be past its prime by the time it goes from Berlin to our soil is beyond me.

But then again, it's Stone. They can market any thing.

 

[Podunkparte]

Any interest in some Stone VE 03.03.03?

They get beer from California to the UK pretty fast (e.g. Enjoy By) so I wouldn't see this being a problem.

Talking to their distro, they do a crapload of work to make sure the freshest stock goes into o/s containers - to the point where if there are shipping delays, they brewery team pull the stock and replace them at the last minute. It's weird that I know for sure how fresh their stock is in my local bottleshop vs the brewery a few kms down the road who don't datestamp bottles.

So did any of the rewards/rare beer collabs/beer perks ever materialized on this?

I'm more disappointed on only 29 pages of TB response prior to SeaWatchman's necrosis

I went there for the BUFF brewday... the pilot brew of the Maui beer was on tap and was legit. I'd do a magnum of that solo, then consider all my self-hatred at once

Seems like a strange choice for the Maui beer considering Maui already does an imperial coconut porter themselves.

It's now officially an 'Imperial Coconut Hazelnut Porter' - the hazelnut was pretty prominent.

I will buy the crap out of that. I love Imperial Coconut Porter, but it's draft-only. Also glad I didn't go in on a magnum...

Part imperial stout, part Belgian abbey ale and all IPA
Style: Black Belgian-Style Double IPA
