Stone Old Guardian 2014 Debuts 2/24 & Oakquinox

From Stone:

If you’re one of the millions of souls currently buried under snow and ice, this news ought to warm you up. Starting early next week, you’ll be able to get your mittens on a bottle (or two, or twelve; you might want to stock up in case winter lasts even longer) of 2014 Stone Old Guardian Barley Wine. Starting right now, you can check out the stats on this year’s hefty, Stone-ified version of the traditional beer style ahead of the pack (the newsletter-less masses won’t get to see this until Monday) on the official page, and start plotting the shortest route to your local bottle shop. We tweaked this year’s recipe ever so slightly, and the results are simply spectacular, if we do say so ourselves. 

And now it’s time to treat you to something truly special: Surely you’re aware that Stone Oakquinox, our annual festival of barrel-aged brews, is coming soon…no? That must be because we haven’t posted it on our website yet. But we’re giving you first dibs on tickets to this huge shindig scheduled for Sunday April 6th. Yep, we’re offering these to you right now, before anyone else even knows it’s on our calendar, just to show you how very special we think you are. The beer list isn’t posted yet, but you can trust us when we say it’s going to be totally outrageous, with dozens of hard-to-find, wood-infused beers from all over the planet. We hope you’ll join us!
