Ghost Town Stone Cell

Stone Cell was fermented and aged in oak vessels, then conditioned on California-grown Bartlett and Asian Pears. This bright, juicy, and tart mixed-fermentation ale’s subtle perfume of ripe pears is matched with just enough earthy funk to remind you where it came from and where we will all return. Stone cells give pear flesh its characteristic grit, but the term also calls to mind the cold cruelty of a prison. A particularly nefarious form of prison architecture known as the panopticon has become a common metaphor for internalized discipline, repression, and pervasive surveillance. We encourage you to enjoy Stone Cell shamelessly because no one is actually watching.
