Stone Pale Ale - Stone Brewing Co - Escondido, CA

Stone Pale Ale, Stone Brewing Co - 4/5

Stone Pale was one of the first local San Diego microbrews I stumbled across and is now a “go-to” beer for me.

It’s hoppy and malty and strikes what I feel to be one of the most perfectly balanced pale ales on the shelves.
It pours out a light hazy amber color and to the mouth you will get a subtle toffee maltiness harmoniously balanced with a bold floral hop.

It has the drinkability to be a session beer but also the complexity to be paired with cheeses and meats.

I am so fond of this beer that we served it to our guests at our wedding. What better way to showcase a local San Diego brew than to offer it to a mob of thirsty Australians.
