Firestone Walker Announces 2023 Brewmaster’s Collective Details

(Paso Robles, CA) –  Firestone Walker today announced the 2023 edition of its Brewmaster’s Collective beer club, introducing a variety of new benefits and small-batch exclusives including a throwback allocation of the brewery’s iconic Pale 31.

Open enrollment in the 2023 Brewmaster’s Collective begins now at FirestoneBeer.com and ends on December 31, 2022 or until capacity is reached.

Now entering its third year, the Brewmaster’s Collective has become a fixture of creativity, collaboration and innovation at Firestone Walker, providing members with access to the brewery’s most artisanal small-batch creations.

“It took us 25 years to launch our first beer club, and now we can’t imagine life without it,” said Brewmaster Matt Brynildson. “It is not only enabling us to create some really interesting beers—it’s also fostering a deeper personal connection with our most passionate fans.”
