The making of Firestone Walker XIII - PubCrawler.com Beer News
Rick Sellers gets to do the coolest stuff, like go to Firestone Walker Brewing Co. to help blend the brewery’s 13th anniversary beer. Luckily for us, he reports back with the details.
One of the most fascinating things about the day was the fact that regardless of the methodology, we all came up with beer that was remarkably similar. Each of us used the same two beers as the base, in differing ratios, but ultimately resulting in a beer that was dark, fat, and boozy — awesome beers. The panel did not choose a “favorite;” that wasn’t really our job. Instead we all passed on our favorite recipes to Matt, discussed what we were hoping to achieve in our blends, and talked about why we liked each blend.
