"Maria has all the qualities we were looking for in a CEO," explained Steve Wagner, Stone Brewing co-founder and interim CEO, in a statement. "She brings experience from a very well-respected brewery, and experience from outside the industry, too. She lives up to our values and has long admired our revolutionary spirit.
