    Wow! Big news this morning about Firestone Walker Wow! Big news this morning about Firestone Walker Brewing Company and the craft beer industry. Proud of our hometown brand:
 
“Firestone Walker Brewing Company and Duvel Moortgat USA today announced that they have signed a definitive agreement with Stone Brewing, a subsidiary of Sapporo USA, to acquire the Stone Brewing brand, as well as select hospitality locations, bringing one of America’s foundational craft breweries into a family of like-minded brewers.
 
At the heart of the next chapter for Stone Brewing is a shared commitment to craft, a fearless spirit, and long-term brand building. Firestone Walker will serve as Stone’s West Coast home, offering a natural fit rooted in California brewing culture, with the scale and experience to support Stone’s continued evolution.
 
The acquisition includes four Stone Brewing hospitality locations: Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens at Liberty Station in San Diego, along with tap rooms in San Diego (Little Italy), Oceanside, and Pasadena. The Liberty Station location will continue to operate as both a hospitality destination and an active brewing facility, maintaining Stone’s physical presence in San Diego. 
 
The partnership is designed to accelerate Stone into the future, while staying true to the character that has defined it for three decades. Like Stone, Firestone Walker was founded in 1996 and is widely regarded as one of California’s leading craft brewers. Firestone Walker will play a central role in supporting Stone’s future, as the two coastal breweries together represent a powerful expression of California’s craft heritage.”

“The menu showcases amusingly named pizzas like the Toadhead (with a lemon cream sauce,roasted mushrooms and guanciale) and the Peeper-Roni (with tomato sauce, house mozzarella and pepperoni).

Enjoy the local farmers’ bounty with small plates of seasonal options, including favorites like the Caesar salad of Little Gems lettuce with garlic anchovy dressing, and the roasted speck–wrapped persimmons. The menu is just as fun as the owners are, and that’s saying a lot.“
