Description

In 2013, our CEO and Co-founder, Greg Koch, invited two respected fans of craft beer, brewing and all things Stone to develop an intense, inventive beer capable of not only delivering immense avor, but also serving as a tting, singular celebration of ber-level enthusiasm. Self-proclaimed geeks in a number of arenas, the duo of thespian and renaissance man Wil Wheaton and Fark.com online news guru Drew Curtis proved up to the challenge, calling on their personal backgrounds to devise an imperial stout brewed with aked rye, wheat and pecans that was partially aged in Kentucky Bourbon barrels. Shortly after being released, this creationdubbed w00tstout in honor of w00tstock, Wils annual tribute festival to cross-genre geekdombecame an instant cult classic.

So, despite the fact that Greg spent the rst half of 2014 on an international walkabout-style sabbatical, Wil and Drew were invited back to Stone to put a new spin on this threesome-borne beauty. All they needed was a third conspirator, and for that, they called on friend and fellow geek, Aisha Tyler. An actress, talk show host, comedian and author with a air for individuality, she brought an entire new dimension to the brew day, just as the stone-ground chocolate the trio added to the original w00tstout recipe added delicious depth to the beer. Also brought in to put a personalized stamp on this years edition of w00tstout was famed comic artist Dave Gibbons.
