[Updated x 2] Taplist for Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Festival 2013
5/29 UPDATE: Pretty darn close to the final list, without much of any Firestone Waker Beers Announced. Enjoy!
UPDATE: Firestone Walker has begun trickling in OFFICIAL/SANCTIONED BEERS being poured at this weekends festival. The Full Pint still stands by the information below, so we have added what Firestone Walker has announced, and will be marked with * for being released from FSW. Cheers
We are less than 2 weeks away from The 2013 Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Festival. Last years event has been revered as one of the best beer festivals ever. With this event being sold out, there isn’t much room to hype it up, but we know for most of you this is going to be like Christmas, and you would like to take a peek at your presents. We have compiled an UNSANCTIONED, Partial Tap List for the event, as well as speculation on some beers we could not confirm. We hope this gets you as stoked as it gets us. We hope to see you there! Cheers!

SPECULATION – Not confirmed, no tip offs, just insight…
Firestone Walker
It’s their festival, I imagine all of their fresh ales, there Proprietors Reserve, and maybe some old Barrel Works beers like Lil Opal and Maybe something like Reginald Brett.
Three Floyds
Smart money is on a Dark Lord Variant and Zombie Dust.
Stone Brewing
They’d be silly not to bring EnjoyBy 06.XX.13 and to balance it out, a double dry hopped Levitation. Called it!
AleSmith
They’ve ramped up their barrel program to where I can see them pouring a BA Speedway or BA something or other. Also probably Nut Brown Ale. Called it!
