Arrogant Biodiesel - Local Brewery Delivers a Green Future

Local San Diego Stone Brewery announced that it will use a B20 biodiesel blend to fuel its fleet of SoCal delivery trucks with plans to switch to 100% biodiesel later this year. With a brand new 50,000 sq ft brewery and bistro in San Marcos, Stone will produce its own biodiesel from greasy treats such as the Arrogant Bastard Ale Onion Rings made famous in past brewfests.

Co-founders Steve Wagner and Greg Koch have always been concerned about impacts on the environment, so a switch to using biodiesel makes perfect sense. “One of our brewers has been making biodiesel for his personal truck for some time, and it only made sense that if he could do it on his own, we owed it to the environment to do the same,” said President and Brewmaster Steve Wagner.
