Stony Creek

Stony Creek hasn’t even been in Massachusetts for a full year and they are already popping up everywhere.  Beautiful logos, interesting styles and a strong command of hops, these Connecticut brewers are not trying to fly away anytime soon.  Just in time for our tasting, they have just released Stony Joe, a golden mocha stout.  Golden stouts are going to start popping up more and more.  They are just what they sound like, a stout that pours golden yellow.  It’s a style I am still figuring out, so get in on the early days to say you’ve had one.   On top of Stony Joe, we’ll be tasting the Crankys in varying sizes.

Stony Creek #1

Despite being relatively new to our shelves and to Massachusetts, Stony Creek is making an impact.  Their Cranky line up has everything you need.  Little Cranky is the session IPA, Cranky their IPA, and Big Cranky is their double IPA.  Besides these staples, they have beers for those looking for something other than hoppiness.  Recently their Dock Time won a gold medal for Amber beer and I think it is maybe the best amber we have on our shelves.  But I’ll let you all come to your own conclusions at our first Brewery of the Month tasting.  July 9th, 1-3pm.
