Today marks the 80th anniversary of the glorious day that Prohibition came to an end. Craft beer lovers all over are celebrating Repeal day because December 5 marks the return of great American craft beer.

To commemorate our constitutional right to drink beer, I will be drinking some of my personal favorites by Stone Brewery. Stone Brewery’s philosophy is simple: Arrogance. It is the belief that their beers are better than all others and the quality of beer their breweries produce stands apart from all others. As a fan of Stone beer, I have to agree with their philosophy. The quality of their beers is truly amazing. They believe in having the freshest and best tasting beers.

In celebration of Repeal day, check out my top five Stone beers. Cheers!

1. Stone Enjoy By

The Stone Enjoy by is the freshest double IPA. These beers are specifically brewed NOT to last. Stone wants consumers to know that there is no better time than right now to enjoy this IPA.

The last Enjoy by for 2013 is the Enjoy by 12.13.13. This is truly one of the best tasty IPA’s I have ever had.

ABV: 9.4%

2. Levitation

First released in September 2002, this Stone product has a much lower alcohol content than their other products but tons of flavor that make this beer truly tasty. This amber ale has notes of citrus and pine, rich maltiness, and great hoppy flavor.

ABV: 4.4%

3. Arrogant Bastard

First Release Date: November 1997

“This is an aggressive ale. You probably won’t like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate an ale of this quality and depth. We would suggest that you stick to safer and more familiar territory.”

This American Strong Ale has major hops and bitterness with an aftertaste of grapefruit and orange peel. This is the first craft beer I ever tried and it is still one of my favorites.

ABV: 7.2%

4. 17th Anniversary Gotterdammerung IPA

“Despite the daunting name, this beer isn’t designed to bring about the end of the world, but it just might destroy some of your preconceived notions of what an IPA can be.”

The latest anniversary beer is a great Stone IPA brewed with German malt and hops. This beer is unique because this IPA is brewed entirely with pilsner malts.The Anniversary beer has moderate hops, strong bitterness and tastes of orange, grapefruit, pine and floral notes.

ABV: 9.5%

5. Suede Imperial Porter

Stone Collaboration with Tonya Cornett of 10 Barrel Brewing Company and Megan O’Leary Parisi of Bluejacket

The honey, jasmine and calendula flowers blended with chocolate and roasted malts give this imperial porter a complex and unique taste. The aftertaste is herbal and sweet.

ABV: 9.6%
