    We've already sold out of one Stone Groundbreaking Collaborations beer and the next three aren't far behind, so we're announcing the next heavy hitter coming out of the dugout. Ladies and gentlemen, we couldn't be more pleased to announce that the next world-class collaboration will be brewed with none other than AleSmith Brewing Co. from right here in San Diego.

    For those not in the know, AleSmith is a world-renowned brewery whose beers have won enough medals to weigh down a rhinoceros. But AleSmith's brewers operate on a modest scale, so if you live outside the American Southwest you may not have tasted their ambrosial wares. Now is your chance to find out what all the fuss is about by ordering your very own 1.5-liter bottle of the upcoming AleSmith/Stone collaboration. We haven't hammered out the style yet, but you can be certain that it will be nothing less than spectacular with AleSmith's talented brew crew on board.

    Ordered it this morning. I have already ordered Super Bashah (BrewDog - actually getting two because of the price restructure), the aforementioned, unnamed beer (AleSmith) and the magical w00tstout 3.0...yikes I'm going to be broke if they don't stop collaborating

    Just bought mine. I hope it's Super Duper Speedway Stout or something like that.

    WOW! That's a real bonus for us here on the east coast. I'd rather get the bottle for $20 and forget the add-ons.

    Give the card and discount to a west coast BA. Maybe you'll find a box with tasty beer on your doorstep in return. In my experience, BAs are nice guys and gals.

    Well, by the time the bottle is ready, the east coast brewery should be open.

    OK. But I'll still be stuck with a $10 AleSmith gift card but I already have a solution suggested above.

    I'm very tempted to pull the trigger on this...

    It's amazing how good a beer I literally know nothing about (other than the two brewers) can sound!

    I'm guessing it will be something like that or a double/ triple IPA. None of the other brews have been IPA's so maybe this one?

    After I purchased it I realized how long it will be until this comes through. Could be a couple years. I might not be living so close to San Diego by that time. :slight_frown:

    Would love if these collabs were IPAs, especially with Alesmith, but if they are made in Berlin, and then shipped to the US and then held till pick up (Stone will hold these for up to a year), I would much prefer something that improves with age, or in the very least, doesn't get worse. I'd be surprised if Stone and collaborators didn't factor product longevity into their style choice.

    If Stone could only convince Russian River or other esteemed sour producer to jump on board!

    I'm pretty sure a Lost Abbey collaboration is on deck.

    Judging from watching all the videos about the colabs they will all play off the previous ones. Alesmith did a triple before so it should be that. I hope they go ok with Lost Abbey. That would be amazing!!
