Stones Throw Fresh Hop Block Party 2025

Shut down the street and drink a beer with your neighbor at the Stones Throw Fresh Hop Block Party on Saturday, October 4th, 2025, from noon–9pm. All ages are invited down to the brewery for free live music as we release our annual Fresh Hop IPA and pick hops for our Community Hopped Ale! 

The party kicks off at noon with Tea Sea’s Trio (12–2pm), followed by the Jasmine Greene Band (2:30–4:30pm), and wraps up with the Little Big Band (5–8pm). Galley2Go, Street Dogz and Doug’s Burgers will be serving up delicious food all day long. Every beverage will be served in a reusable cup, in our effort to reduce waste.

You’ll have your pick from 10 different Stones Throw brews, including this year's Fresh Hop IPA made with hops from Loza Farms in the Yakima Valley, the only Mexican American–owned hop farm in the U.S. 

Not only will there be great beer and fantastic food, but we’re also putting the call out for community hops! Each year, Stones Throw and friends work together to pick neighbor-grown hops for our Community Hopped Ale. We’ll be collecting hops the day before the Block Party (and brewing the day after), so drop off your hops at Stones Throw on Friday, October 3rd or the morning of Saturday, October 4th to be part of this year’s Community Fresh Hop. 

As always, Stones Throw events are free to attend, family- and dog-friendly, rain or shine.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
