HAD 88: Firestone Walker

Well, they did it. I hope your all happy because we are talking about a brewery that doesn’t distribute in this neck of the woods. If you are lucky enough to get some Firestone Walker then I’d like to ask if you could smuggle some my way. Cause I don’t have any and it makes me mad. We’re going to talk about this great brewery, and a bit about what they make. So come in and have a drink, and if you have some Firestone Walker (Nick) bring it with you.

WHAT WE’RE DRINKING:

Justin

  • Beer: pennyrile

  • Brewery: west sixth

  • Style: American Pale Ale

  • ABV: 6.00 %

  • IBUs:

  • Beer Advocate Score: 4.14/5

  • Brewery’s description:This dry hopped pale ale brings the hops, delivering big aromas and flavors of tropical fruit (guava), pineapple, juicy orange and pine. The range of hop character seems to nearly evolve throughout the life of the glass. Pennyrile’s medium body helps carry the hops all the way to the finish, where it meets a balancing bitterness that doesn’t overwhelm. Mosaic and Citra hops are at play here.
