ESCONDIDO, Calif., Nov. 7, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Stone Brewing announces the launch of its full
line of specialty coffees, now available online and rolling out to
stores nationwide in early 2024. Stone Brewing Coffee will adopt
the branding and flavor characteristics of three of the brewery's
popular brands:
- Arrogant Bastard Ale
- Stone Buenaveza Salt & Lime Lager
- Stone Xocoveza
- Plus, a Black Label Collection of highly exclusive, rotating
single-origin offerings
Known for pioneering the West Coast Style IPA and helping to
fuel the modern craft beer revolution, Stone introduces its line of
coffees to offer fans a new way to experience the celebrated
brand's 27-year heritage.
Coffee has long been one of the favorite special ingredients for
Stone's brewers to work with. The flavors and aroma of coffee blend
beautifully with the unique tastes, bitterness, and complexity of
hops. Stone Xocoveza, a best-selling special release Mocha Stout,
is one of those beers. The rich depth of its flavor is owed in
large part to a hefty dose of beautifully roasted coffee. Stone
released its first custom, small batch roasted coffee beans,
inspired by Stone Xocoveza, in 2021. Encored by a deep roast,
inspired by Stone Imperial Stout,
the following year. When Stone fans showed their love for Stone
coffee, it became clear that they are as passionate about unique,
bold coffee as they are about beer.
Erin Smith, Stone Brewing Sr.
Vice President of Marketing, said, "There is a definite overlap in
what attracts people to craft beer and to craft coffee. Quality,
intention, and passion are what our fans seek. We're excited to
extend the bold and bitter personality of Arrogant Bastard Ale and
the cross-border influence of Stone Buenaveza and Stone Xocoveza
into these specialty coffee offerings."
The full line of specialty coffee products includes:
- Single-serve DRIPKIT pour-overs
- Single-serve brew bags
- Whole bean 12oz coffee bags
- Industrial Compostable K-Cups
Stone Brewing Coffee is produced in partnership with NuZee,
Inc. (Nasdaq: NUZE), a leading coffee co-packing and
technology company. As Stone began exploring how to grow its
potential in the world of coffee, it looked no further than NuZee,
the producer of Stone's earlier special release small batches.
NuZee shares the brewery's mission of bringing quality ingredients
and unapologetically bold flavors to passionate people across the
country and around the world.
Stone Brewing Coffee will be distributed nationwide through
NuZee's vast network of natural grocery, traditional grocery, and
convenience store channels, as well as office coffee, hotel
brokers, distributors, and direct-to-consumer channels. Find the
