It's raining outside, and storming inside; right now at Neighborhood all 27 of our taps are dedicated to Stone Brewing Company's Winter Storm 2010. The annual celebration starts February 7th at Stone's World Bistro and Gardens, and this year, we decided to follow suit as the first ever Winter Storm satellite location.
From 2009's best sellers to the most sought-after varieties from year's past, Stone Brewing Co.'s cellar is tapped, and will pour until we run out. See our offerings below.

If you've had the pleasure of visiting Stone World Bistro and Gardens, you've probably noticed that only a few of the 32 taps are actually Stone labels. For one week only that will change; on February 7th, Stone Brewing Company celebrates its annual Winter Storm, where all taps feature house-made brews. From seasonal releases, to year round brews, casks, vintages, collaborations, one-off creations, and bottles, Stone Brewing Co. is busting the best from its cellar all week long (thru January 13th), until they run out.
This is exciting stuff, but we are most pleased to announce that Neighborhood will be the first ever satellite location for Winter Storm, meaning that all 27 of our taps will be dedicated to Stone Brewing Company. The start date is the same as Stone's, and when we run out, we run out.
Weather the storm at Neighborhood, or the World Bistro and Gardens; come rain, shine or football (the Super Bowl!), Winter Storm will hit with force. A word of warning to beer geeks who are also NFL fans, you might want to get to one of these locations sooner rather than later to ensure a taste of your favorites before they tap out...
Neighborhood now offers gift cards. Why did we wait until after the holidays to start selling gift cards? We want you to enjoy what we do every day of the year. That, and we'd like to think we're above the holiday, mass-consumerism hype.
At 18%abv, World Wide Stout by Dogfish Head Craft Brewed Ales is the strongest beer we've ever had on tap at Neighborhood. World Wide Stout pours black and has a deep, dark roasted malts nose; chocolate, dark fruits, and molasses are present. You might be surprised by how smooth, creamy and drinkable this double American/Imperial stout is, despite its high alcohol content. Sip and enjoy this special craft from one of our favorite breweries in the country.
Bashah is a 'Black Belgian style double IPA,' and frankly, we wouldn't expect any less from 2 craft brewers whose ales appeal to arrogant bastards and punks. In their latest collaboration, Stone Brewing Company and BrewDog concocted this 8.6% ale that has a near black pour, its nose distinctively Stone-y with a robust hop bouquet. Roasted malts are the dominant flavor that gives way to citrusy, then sweet notes, and of course a Belgian yeast presence. A dynamic hybrid with lots of flavors in every sip, give Bashah a try at Neighborhood while our cooler is stocked.
