Firestone Walker Invitational 2018

"kinda long" or "kinda big" ???? =P

 

Haha, I might have a bottle or thirty in the cellar...

 

If you want to unload any feel free to DM me!

 

Didn’t we have a beer list by this time last year?

 

https://www.firestonebeer.com/brewery/invitational-beer-fest-beer-lineup.php

 

No app this year?

 

FW has a link that says the same team did the app again and has screenshots of "2018 FWIBF App", however the app itself is still the 2017 on both the Apple and Google Play Store. They are likely updating it, I hope, as it was rather useful last year.

 

Boo, the list just got pulled down

 

I imagine the app and a hard list will be available on Friday

 

Downloadable list! https://www.firestonebeer.com/files/2017beerlineup-2.pdf

 

That's still the 2017 list

Oops, sorry. I still had the window open and just copied the link without checking it.

 

Sweet!!

 

Email came out to attendees about 10-15min ago. The app is updated to reflect 2018 breweries/beers but there is no option, nor push notification (at least for me) to update it from within the app.

I went to the Play store and saw the update tag and pulled it down. So go manually update your app.

 

So, unfortunately, I am not going to be able to make it this year leaving my GA ticket up for grabs. I'm not looking for anything other than face and the ticket fee, just would hate for it to go to waste. DM me if you're interested.

 

The ticket I had is sold, thanks to everyone who emailed, and a big thanks to @johnnybeerbar for being my personal ticket master. I am more bummed about missing the Adelaide share than the event

 

That's a hell of a list. This weekend I'm gonna have to start digging through my beer cellar to figure out all of what I'm bringing.

 

And so we descend on Paso Robles in a week, by invitation, on our annual pilgrimage uniting people from some of the most innovative breweries on the planet, with the most passionate beer advocates. Stuck in the same small town, in the same hotels, many of us with an oddly large amount of beer to share, it seems like once again the stars are aligning.

May we all treat our hosts well, enjoy a great festival, participate in one of the many shares, (maybe even instigate one in your hotel), and do what we do best "respect beer"

Cheers
