Firestone Walker Party!

Firestone Walker available online now. (4 types only)
FYI -- We have plenty of the 4 types in stock , should not be any need to reserve, especially if you are coming tonight.








Stone Brewing tells us they plan on coming to St. Louis in April (In fact Stone has created a Missouri Stone Facebook page - click to like it) and Green Flash has plans to hit St. Louis in the Summer. Both are not registered with the state yet, so they remain to be seen. But on the other hand FIRESTONE WALKER is now registered in Missouri and we have the kickoff party confirmed at The Wine and Cheese Place in Clayton

Firestone Walker Nectar Hemp Ale
"Affiliated with the Nectar Ales experience through shared origins at Humboldt Brewing Company, Hemp Ale is a one-of-a-kind brew that boasts an incredibly rich profile and unique herb-accented flavor that is attributable to the incorporation of hemp seeds into the brewing process. A wonderful brown ale full of complexity Hemp Ale is great with food or by itself. American hops create a perfect balance to the darker malts used in this brew. This brown ale is the Gold Medal winner for first place in its category at both the 1999 and 2000 California State Fair Craft Brewing Competitions."

Firestone Walker Nectar IPA
"Our IPA is created from a base of Pale and Crystal malts and is aggressively hopped throughout the brewing process with a final hop addition in the conditioning vessel.A beautiful flowery hop aroma will greet you as you dive into this hop lover's dream. A middle caramel malt presence balances high hop bitterness with hop flavor end to end... learn to love hops!"

Firestone Walker Abacus
"Abacus is a barrel aged Barley Wine. Big boozy bourbon and American oak aromas combined with soft chocolate malty undertones. Complex malt flavors framed in oak, with hints of dark chocolate, vanilla, tobacco, coconut and just a touch of dark cherry. This is definitely a sipping beer, best served in a brandy snifter. Abacus pairs well with dark chocolate and sturdy cheeses"

Firestone Walker Anniversary #14
Since founding our brewery in 1996, we have specialized in the rare art of fermenting beer in oak barrels. In the fall of 2006, we released a limited edition, oak-aged strong ale called “10” to commemorate our 10th anniversary, thus beginning an annual autumn rite.
This year, we present 14, our fifth release from our barrel aged program. 14 was crafted from separate lots produced over several months and years, then carefully blended into this truly unique and complex brew --

Firestone Walker Double Jack
"Double Jack IPA is our first ever Imperial IPA. It features a big malty middle to cloak the high alcohol and mouth puckering hop bitterness. Huge tangerine, grapefruit and juicy fruit aroma blossom over the herbal blue basil and malt earthiness of this aggressive beer. Best enjoyed in moderation."

Firestone Walker Walkers Reserve
"A singularly distinctive beer that represents our finest brewing efforts, Walker’s Reserve is a elegant dark ale featuring robust flavors of toffee, caramel and bittersweet chocolate. This brew employs five specialty malts, as well as oat and barley flakes, for added complexity and flavor"



If St. Louis supports all of these great beers from Firestone Walker we will hopefully see some of their other beers like Union Jack and many more.
