Firestone Walker Beer, Ale, Twenty Three Anniversary, 2019 Vintage, Special Limited Release 1 Ea

Limited release. A blend of barrel aged beers. 23rd Anniversary ale special limited release. In the fall of 2006. Brewmaster Matt Brynildson asked a handful of his winemaker friends for their input on blending a diverse stash of barrel-aged strong ales. Together, they came up with 10 - a trailblazing beer commemorating our 10th anniversary. And so began an annual autumn rite that now continues into our 23rd year. At the advent of the recent harvest season here in Paso Robles, Matt and his brewing team once again convened with their friends in the local winemaking community. These winemakers are practicing experts in the art of blending, and they came to help us assemble a harmonious beer from among seven barrel-aged component ales. As always, they broke into teams, and a spirited competition ensued to create the winning blend, which you now hold in your hand. The result is XXIII - a beer of immense depth and complexity, with long, intense flavors that beg to be sipped and savored. XXIII is built to last. Savor it now, or cellar it for future enjoyment.
