Stone Brewing's Greg Koch | episode 018

In this episode of The Zane Lamprey Show, Zane sits down with Greg Koch — the self-proclaimed "eternal angry young man" and the legendary co-founder of Stone Brewing. Zane reminisces about their first meeting while filming Drinking Made Easy, admitting he couldn't quite get a read on Greg's vibe back then.


They dive into Greg’s rock 'n' roll roots, his early days managing and producing bands, and the wild journey that took him from Ohio to California’s music scene — and eventually to brewing one of the most iconic beers in the world, Arrogant Bastard Ale. Greg shares the story of opening a brewery in Berlin, selling American craft beer to Germans.

Plus, Zane struggles hilariously with a vinyl record, Pokee makes a cameo, and Greg unveils Metal Warrior— his new heavy-metal graphic novel project, complete with original music videos.
