Stone Company Store | South ParkAs I’m sure you know by now, Stone Brewing Co. is hoping to open a company store (which will technically be a brewery) at 2215 30th Street in South Park. They are still in the process of obtaining their alcohol permits and are holding two meetings for people to come out and get more info. The first meeting was yesterday which we missed and the next meeting will be Sunday, November 28th at 1pm at the proposed location.

Here’s the text from the sign posted in the window. If you’re interested in seeing Stone Brewing Co. open their new store in South Park or have questions about it, show up and find out more info.

Stone Brewing Co. is proud to announce intent to open a “Stone Company Store.” We believe that South Park is the perfect location due to its pedestrian/bike friendly streets, commitment to local businesses, and strong sense of community.

The Stone Company Store | South Park wil bring Stone Brewing Co. merchandise and growler fills to the city of San Diego for the first time. It will allow fans of Stone’s fresh, locally-brewed beer to fill reusable glass jugs known as “growlers” with a variety of Stone beers. Growlers, which are endlessly reusable, are the most environmentally sustainable way to enjoy Stone beers at home.

Stone Co-Founder & CEO Greg Koch said, “South Park is such a wonderful community with a fantastic and growing craft beer scene. We are excited to contribute to the continued strengthening and development of this unique, tight-knit neighborhood.”

If you would like more information,, please join Greg and other Stone representatives here for one or both of our informal information exchange sessions. Or as we’ll call it, a Talkabout.

Big News Brewing About the Stone Company Store South Park

Remember the Stone Company Store South Park we told you about? A few days ago we revealed the location when a friend spotted the notice of a permit to sell alcohol, and one detail of that brought up some interesting questions. The type of permit Stone Brewing Co. is applying for at their upcoming South Park location is a “Type 23 – Small Beer Manufacturer”. As you might imagine that suggests they’ll be making beer on premises in South Park. We confirmed with Stone that they will indeed have a small pilot brewing system on site. They’ll be brewing in South Park. Yes, if all goes according to plan 30th Street will be getting a (small) brewery.

This raises some interesting possibilities, that we by no means have any insight into, just speculation and hope.

One possible reason for this could have to do with California liquor laws, this could be a clever way to be able to fill growlers. We won’t get into all of the details, but the way we understand it is that in California, only breweries are allowed to fill growlers. Stone says the focus of the Stone Company Store South Park will be to provide the local community with fresh beer to go, so obviously growler fills will play a big part in this. Having a brewery on site will allow them to fill growlers, not only with beer brewed on site, but also with beer brewed at the main brewery in Escondido. If the Stone Company Store South Park weren’t a brewery they wouldn’t be able to fill growlers at all.

Another, more interesting possibility is that they could produce some beers in the South Park location that they otherwise don’t normally make. Breweries use small pilot systems to test new ideas, brewing on a small scale means that if a beer turns out terribly the financial loss is lessened. We could see some new beers, experimental beers and otherwise not normally produced beers from Stone coming out of the South Park location. Again, this is all (hopeful) speculation, but there could be some interesting small batch, draft only beers coming out of their South Park location in the future.

Another bit of news we confirmed with Stone is that they’re seeking the ability to sell on premises tasters and pints, but again, their focus is on beer to go. They emphasize that the Stone Company Store South Park isn’t a pub.

One thing to remember is that this is all subject to change. Stone is still in the process of applying for their permit to sell alcohol. The guys from West Coaster ran into Greg Koch, CEO of Stone just last night and chatted about the upcoming South Park location. He suggested that if you want to see the Stone Company Store South Park get the proper permits they need to open you write letters to the ABC showing support.

A few months ago we blogged about Stone Brewing Co.’s plans to open a store, complete with growler fills, in South Park. There was much speculation about where it would be located, but Stone declined to state the exact location at the time.

I followed up with them a few weeks ago and they still weren’t revealing the location, but did say that due to permitting delays the opening of the store would probably be delayed until early next year.

Stone Brewing Co.’s alcohol permit application notice has been spotted, at 2215 30th Street where many people expected it to be. We’re anxiously awaiting the opening and will keep you posted when we hear more news.
