Firestone Walker Brewing Releases Generation 1 from Venice Brewery
(Venice, CA) – After a few weeks of fine tuning, Firestone Walker Brewing Company’s new Propagator brewhouse in Venice, California is set to unveil its first creation—Generation 1, an unfiltered West Coast-style IPA.
Generation 1 will be tapped starting on Wednesday, November 23 at the adjacent Propagator restaurant.
Generation 1 is aggressively hopped with Citra, Mosaic and Mandarina hops, yet maintains a soft, agreeable texture. The word from Propagator brewer Ben Maushardt and his crew is that Generation 1 is “loaded with bold aromas and devilish drinkability.”
The Propagator is designed to operate as a pilot brewhouse for experimental beers, setting the pace for what is next from Firestone Walker. It will also serve as a working neighborhood brewery to produce unique one-off beers available solely at the Venice location—starting with Generation 1.
Said David Walker, “Christening the Propagator with a West Coast-style IPA only seemed fitting. We are proud to share it with our neighbors, and it is the first of many small batches to come.”

We are so excited to taste Generation 1 and to visit The Propogator. We are so proud of our son, Ben Maushardt and his accomplishments with Firestone Walker. We look forward to more exciting beers.
