It was 25 years ago that we planted our flag in North County San Diego. We showed up to a modest, empty warehouse with some mighty big dreams. We thought people deserved a world with better beer, and were determined to be part of a cultural transformation we believed could happen… even though few others shared our vision. This massive triple IPA is another important milestone on our continuing journey. Speaking of journeys, for reasons you may guess, our 25th Anniversary Celebration in 2021 will be a bit understated for such a monumental anniversary, so we’ve decided to hold our big event in 2022 with the Stone 25+1 Years In The Making Anniversary Celebration. After a quarter of a century and quite a few twists and turns, we’re still here. Here for hops. Here for quality. Here for making great mistakes. Here for more good times. Here for another round. We thank you sincerely for the years of support and pledge that we will, as always, strive to live up to the reasons for your loyalty!

25 years calls for a momentous beer – this Triple IPA will not disappoint! Clocking in at 12.5%, this massively hopped IPA is a true celebration in a bottle of 25 years of exploration, innovation, and of course, great beers. Conceived originally by Kris Ketcham, Sr. Manager, Brewing & Innovation for the 7th Anniversary of Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station, this beer demanded to be amped up even more and released nationally to celebrate the Big One. Here’s to 25 more!

--Canned, from Systembolaget. -- Slightly hazy amber, mid sized, firm, dense head - looks delicious! Concentrated dank grapefruit aroma with evident alcohol. Surprisingly dry with full body and dense, rounded mouthfeel. Peppery and super dank with lots of grapefruit, Really bitter finish with intense alcohol heat.

Can. This is how would I like anniversaries to celebrate. Nice, clean, hoppy IPA with alcohol masterfully hidden. Dangerous, but very good.

Magus, moosine, karamelline ja ikka mõru. Alksi on ka tunda, aga ei midagi hullu selle voli kohta. Selline nagu ipa peaks olema - vastik mõru.

Bärnstensfärgad vätska med gräddigt skum. Rejäla aromer av kaka, karamell, apelsin och en antydan av kåda. Kraftig maltig bas där fruktiga kakor samsas med julapelsiner. Beskan sitter som en smäck mitt i plytet. Enormt värmande och lång eftersmak.

From a 355ml can on 19/12/2021. Pours a clear deep golden, bordering on amber with a medium head. The nose is all caramel, pine and resin. Not surprisingly, it's big and intense on the sip - lots of caramel and biscuit malt and sweet orange, with a massive, dry, tongue coating, warming pine/resin bitterness coming over the top. The mouthfeel is slick and syrupy, the carbonation moderate. A simply outstanding, truly huge old style imperial IPA, dripping with caramel, orange, pine and resin.
