Stone Brewing

Founded in 1996, Stone Brewing has established itself as one of America’s top craft breweries, known for its bold beers and innovative brewing techniques. Located in Escondido, California, the company was started by Greg Koch and Steve Wagner in San Diego County. Since then, Stone Brewing has expanded significantly, now operating multiple facilities including breweries in Escondido and Richmond, Virginia. The brewery mission is centered around an unwavering commitment to quality, not just in its products, but also in its experiences.

Stone Brewing's catalog is diversified, yet the India Pale Ale (IPA) remains a signature style. Their most popular offerings include the Stone IPA, Stone Delicious IPA, and Stone Buenaveza Salt & Lime Lager. Each beer reflects the company's mission to brew flavorful and adventurous brews that challenge conventions in style and palate. With an emphasis on using high-quality ingredients, Stone has built a following that spans beyond the craft beer community into mainstream culture. The brewery also emphasizes sustainability and responsible brewing practices, making efforts to lessen its ecological impact while still delivering world-class beers.
