Stone Delicious IPA

We’ve brewed many India pale ales over the past 18 years, from double-down bitter bombs to piney session sippers. Whether it’s big IBUs or a precise ABV, there’s usually a target we’re shooting for. The same is true of this, our latest IPA, but we gave zero thought to any acronyms.

This one was all about packing as much unique and delicious flavor into a glass as humanly possible, regardless of oomph or octane. This intensely citrusy, beautifully bitter beer is worthy of the simple-yet-lordly title of Stone Delicious IPA. Lemondrop and El Dorado hops combine to bring on a magnificent lemon candy-like flavor that's balanced by hop spice. It’s unlike anything we’ve tasted in nearly two decades of IPA experimentation.

This was the first beer I ever bought, it always reminds of that summer afternoon.

Summer in a can, thank you, Stone.

I have loved the citrusy pale ales and IPAs since I discovered Cream City Pale Ale at Lakefront Brewery in Milwaukee (1994). Stone Delicious is the BEST in a bottle, my only. I cannot have gluten any more, so I am even more grateful to Stone (and Trader Joe's, which sells it in my city).

Great great beer & even better people as a whole. Cheers to Stone and cheers to they’re owners who totally come off as super grounded and humble and just having a passion and drive to keep making new and improved beers! I love the fact that they’re not about the money rather making great beer. Watch they’re Stone IPA video to see that they’re new recipe is much more expensive to brew that beer yet they don’t translate that cost to us. Cheers!!

So glad they bottled this. I've been asking for this in bottles since it came out. This is such a refreshing beer.

This beer is really tasty. I live the citrus version too a lot.

Great beer. Drinking it now 4 weeks after the canned on date and it's so damn good and bitter, right up my alley.

[MattAllenS]

Sounds delicious!  Can't wait to get a 6'er into my fridge to chill & then partake.

[llamaman]

Tried one out of date was still impressed

[MetalKillsRap]

Love this beer! As far as the gluten goes, nobody ever talked about or even cared about gluten all these years and now it seems to be a thing. People worry about too many things these days.

[thekurlzz]
