Stone IPA now available in cans for the first time

Stone Brewing announced in February that they will be canning at their new Berlin, Germany brewery. The cans would be distributed around Europe. That announcement came much to the chagrin of American fans, who wanted cans stateside.

It wasn’t long before the American fans would get the good news.

Now, Stone IPA is hitting shelves in 12 ounce cans for the first time since being released in 1997.  Just in time for summer.

By definition, an India pale ale is hoppier and higher in alcohol than its little brother, pale ale—and we deliver in spades. Now one of the most well-respected and best-selling IPAs in the country, this golden beauty explodes with citrusy, piney hop flavors and aromas, all perfectly balanced by a subtle malt character. This crisp, extra hoppy brew is hugely refreshing on a hot day, but will always deliver no matter when you choose to drink it.

Stone IPA is a 12 ounce bottle, 12 ounce can, and draft offering, year-round.

Style: IPA
Hops: Magnum, Chinook, Centennial
Availability: 12oz Cans, 22oz Bottles, Draft. Year-round

Debut (Cans): Late May/June, 2016

6.9% ABV

Stone Go To IPA releases in tallboy cans

Stone Go To IPA, the brewery’s session IPA, marks the third canned offering by the Escondido, California based brewery. The beer is proceeded by Stone IPA, and Arrogant Bastard in cans.

Stone Go To IPA is the brewery’s lower alcohol beer released in early 2014, while still carrying Stone’s hoppy seal of approval.

Since Day One, we’ve been abundantly forthright and fully transparent about our lust for hops. It’s led us to craft many an IPA, most of them imperial—some intense for their time and all timeless in their intensity. For Stone Go To IPA, we embrace our hop obsession in a new way, funneling an abundance of lupulin-borne bitterness into a “session” IPA that delivers all the fruity, piney character of a much bigger IPA. To accomplish this, we employ “hop bursting,” a new technique wherein an irrational amount of hops is added during the final phase of the brewing process to coax out extreme flavors and aromas while also imparting a burst of desirably pleasant bitterness. The result is an alpha-acid-rich beer that fans can enjoy more of without missing out on the assertive hop character you, like us, crave. So, sit back and go two with your new everyday go-to IPA and bask along with us in the glory of the almighty hop.

Stone Go To IPA will be available starting June 6th in 16 ounce cans. The beer is currently available on draft, and 12 ounce cans.

Style: IPA
Hops: Ahtanum, Amarillo, Cascade,Chinook, Citra, Crystal, Magnum, Mosaic, Sterling, Hopsteiner 06300

Availability: 12oz Bottles
Arrival (Cans): Early June, 2016

4.5% ABV
