November 26th. Bottles and taplist is what we IRS lovers all miss from them. I've known about this even for couple months but did not know exact list.... https://www.stonebrewing.com/events/blackened-friday-1
Is that a joke? RIS was discontinued few years ago ( replaced with Totalitarian)but it is coming back next year.
no, I am not a funny or joking kind of guy……….that was a joke. I heard RIS is coming back. I was wondering if it was coming back this year 2021. Not sure when they usually release it. Black Friday would be a perfect time. But I am good with 2022! Anytime is good for me.
Ill take that list over a 2021 IRS release. I'm local to the Pasadena taproom and the list made me weak in the knees. I plan on getting anything available for crowler fills and 4 bottles so far

If you live in SoCal, how do you decide which place(s) to visit? I'm assuming going to all of them on Black Friday isn't a viable option. Have to say the Oceanside tap list looks particularly attractive. But there are "can't miss" tap handles at every location.
I’m not a power drinker or big abv beer guy anymore…but if I ended up face to face with any of those RIS’s I’d likely be hauled off the premises on a gurney by the end of the night…
I'm a regular at the Pasadena taproom and they have more than enough shit there for me Edit: if i could and didn't have to drive...Oceanside**
yeah I am not local and due to my work I won’t have a chance to hit up breweries on Black Friday. But enjoy!
Assuming you aren’t flying to Richmond, hitting all 5 SoCal locations is going to be a minimum of 4 hours driving (assuming you’re spending the night near the last location) or 7 hours round trip. Probably more with Black Friday traffic. That’s not even factoring in what 5 pubs of imperial stout are going to do to your motor skills. I could see hitting a few locations if you live in or near San Diego, but that Pasadena location really opens up the footprint.
