12th Anniversary Ale (22 oz) - Stone's Anniversary Ale this year stems from 2 pilot beers that were previously brewed by them. The first beer was a delicious Oatmeal Stout and the second was an amazing homebrewed Imperial Stout that had an authentic Oaxacan chocolate added to the boil. Seeing that both beers were a hit, Stone Brewing company decided to combine the two to make this year's 12th Anniversary Ale.
