Stone Brewing's Double / Imperial IPA. Label approved 17 September 2026; not spotted yet.

Stronger than 55% of the 1,373 Double IPA labels we've read.

From the label

“For when life gets bitter. Some moments call for three little words. Car trouble. Running unfashionably late. Forgot to put the beer on ice. Real "FML" moments. This beer represents balance. East Coast juiciness and haze, West Coast crisp finish, Loral and Mosaic hops – all to remind us that when life gets bitter, things can still get better. Let this hazy double IPA and its waves of fresh-squeezed citrus and tropical fruit carry you away to the better moments ahead. How's this for three little words: Damn, that's good.”
