When guests check in, they will be offered a free beer, and can then check out the hotel’s three bars that will serve a wide range of Stone Brewing’s beers on tap in addition to rare limited edition beers.
Eater reports that the Stone Hotel will offer an in-room growler delivery service, rooftop pool and garden, walking trails, and an acre of outdoor space.
The $26 million hotel is due to open in early 2018. Stone Brewing also plans to open a brewery restaurant in Berlin and a tasting room in Napa.
Founded in 1996, Stone Brewing is the 10th largest craft brewer in the US. Producing beers with a high hop content and higher than average alcohol levels, the company’s inaugural brew, Stone Pale Ale, is still considered its flagship.
