Hit your brakes and take a pause from your day to sit back with our latest specialty beer…Brake Time Ale. This springtime seasonal is a golden-style ale, making it the perfect beer to enjoy on a sunny day – once all your chores are finished, of course.

We tap this new specialty brew just in time for May, a big month for both beer and biking at Standing Stone. American Craft Beer Week kicks off May 12th, and breweries all over the country are celebrating with special brews, food & beer pairings, classes, beer dinners and more. We’re still finalizing all our American Craft Beer Week plans (but we can tell you some fun things are in the works), so stay tuned to learn about our upcoming happenings. That same week is national Bike to Work Week, organized by the League of American Bicyclists. We encourage you to use your two-wheeled transportation that week, and hit the brakes when you get to Standing Stone to enjoy this new beer!
