Stone Brewing announced a few weeks ago that they were going to be “Belgianizing” a two of their popular beers – “Russian Imperial Stout” & “Old Guardian” barleywine.

A few days ago Stone Brewing (Escondido, CA) announced that they were going to switch things up a bit. Starting in 2011, and continuing every odd year after, a couple of beers would go “Belgian”. Namely the Russian Imperial Stout, and the Old Guardian Barleywine. Apparently the Stone beer drinking breathren didn’t take that so well. Or, not at all actually. Prompting Greg Koch, CEO of Stone to write this on the Stone Blog:
When we’re right, we’re right. And this, we suppose, is a chance to own up to that. It’s sort of a “They told us so…but we didn’t listen now did we?”
In 2011, Stone Brewing will be throwing a curve ball. 2 of the brewery’s popular released will be Belgian-ized going “Belgo”. Stone calls the program “Odd Beers for Odd Years”. The stone Russian Imperial Stout and Old Guardian Barleywine will undertake this transformation.
From the Stone Blog:
Starting in 2011, we’re kicking-off a program we’ve dubbed “Odd Beers for Odd Years.” Translation: in odd numbered years (2011, 2013, 2015, etc…) we’ll be releasing new variations on Stone Old Guardian Barley Wine and Stone Imperial Russian Stout in place of the classic version. A radical redirection for two reliably wonderful beers, we know, but we think you’ll be pleased with the results.
2012 will bring the regular editions back of course, only to have Belgian style counterparts in 2013. Read on for the full blog post.
