Lagunitas Brewing Company Originally a failed attempt at a 1997 batch of Olde GnarlyWine Ale resulting in an all-new-beer-style we like to call…Irresponsible.

Born of a flood and centuries-old Belgian text, 1554 Enlightened Black Ale uses a light lager yeast strain and dark chocolaty malts to redefine what dark beer can be. In 1997, a Fort Collins flood destroyed the original recipe our researcher, Phil Benstein, found in the library. So Phil and brewmaster, Peter Bouckaert, traveled to Belgium to retrieve this unique style lost to the ages. Their first challenge was deciphering antiquated script and outdated units of measurement, but trial and error (and many months of in-house sampling) culminated in 1554, a highly quaffable dark beer with a moderate body and mouthfeel.

Belgian-inspired dubbel

All the flavors and aromas of a full strength IPA in a smaller package. Grapefruit, orange, lemon and apricot dominate the nose of this hop bomb followed by flavors of citrus and pine.

Juicy Sweet cider with a tingling heat finish

While freshness is a key component of many beers—especially big, citrusy, floral IPAs—we’ve taken it further, a lot further, in this line of devastatingly fresh IPAs. You see, not only did we brew this beer with over 10 different hops, we’ve also gone to extensive lengths to ensure that you’re getting this double IPA in your hands within an extraordinarily short window. That’s why the Enjoy By date isn’t randomly etched in tiny text somewhere on the bottle, to be overlooked by all but the most attentive. Instead, we’ve sent a clear message in the name of the beer itself—further proving that there is no better time than right NOW to enjoy this IPA. We didn’t stop there with this paradigm-shifting beer either…we introduced Stone Enjoy By Black IPA and unique spinoff versions of Stone Enjoy By IPA to make one devastatingly exciting series.

WET returns. 6000 lbs of fresh-picked Citra hops, straight outta Yakima. Brewing now, canning on Monday morning, hitting the Beer Hall Monday afternoon, then onto store shelves on Tuesday. It gets no fresher.

During the most recent hop harvest, our Brewmaster, Jared, got the notion to put some fresh hops into his pint of 312. He liked it so much that we decided to introduce it to Chicago. 312 Dry-Hopped has all of the lemony, doughy notes we love in 312 with extra brightness fromthe dry-hopping. Drink it fresh. Hope you like it.
