Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station opened May 2013 in Point Loma’s now-historic Naval Training Center.

The restaurant encompasses more than 23,500 square feet of indoor and outdoor dining and bars, as well as a bocce ball court, outdoor cinema space and an 11,315-square-foot garden. True to our philosophy, we support an artisanal, natural approach to food, and are the largest restaurant purchaser of small-farm organic produce in San Diego County.

32oz growler pours with a clear deep dark copper body that supports a dark tan head of foam. The aroma offers up a blend of malts, crystal malts, some pine hops and then some nice tangerine and tangelo citrus hoppiness toward the end of the draw. The taste delivers smooth soft sweet malts, some crystal malts and then there’s a slow building of hoppiness. The hops display a spicy sensation as well as wafer thin layers of citrus hops, tangerine hard candy and then it gets into a modest degree of almost vague resiny hoppiness. Interesting beer where the malts are forward and the hops murmur around in the background.
