Are you a fan of Firestone Walker Brewing Company? If you are, it's a great week to be in Seattle. There are three different places/events this week where you can go to get your FW fix.
Things started last night at The Pine Box on Capitol Hill, where they were clearing out their cellar a bit and put on a stellar lineup of Firestone Walker beers including:
-Double Barrel AleAccording to the online tap list at The Pine Box (which they do a great job of always keeping up to date), they will still have all of these beers available when their doors open today at 3:00PM. Firestone Walker rep Mike Clark was also on hand to answer any questions and enjoy a few with some local FW fans.
-Luponic Distortion
-Parabola
-Sticky Monkey (Very rare!)
-Union Jack
-Velvet Merlin
-Velvet Merlin though a randall of rum-soaked currants
-Wookey Jack

Next up is a Firestone Walker tap takeover at Urban Family Public House in Ballard this Thursday, 7/19, whith over 23 Firestone Walker (and Nectar Ales) taps, including:
-Pivo PilsI could be mistaken, but I believe this event may be the first time Reginald Brett has made an appearance in Washigton. I'm looking forward to trying it. Lil' Opal is also fairly rare, so be sure to give it a try if you make it down to Urban Family. Firestone Walker rep Mike Clark will be on hand to answer any questions you may have.

Last but not least is a special Firestone Walker beer dinner at Deluxe Bar and Grill on Capitol Hill. This is a BBQ-themed dinner, and it takes place this Thursday, July 19th from 6:30-9PM. Reservations are required. You can call 206-324-9697 to make a reservation. Below is the full menu for the dinner:
So there you have it, three different Firestone Walker events to statisfy your craving. I'll be back down at The Pine Box on my way home today for a few more, and then at Urban Famiy Public House on Thursday. C'mon down, say hi and have a few great beers.
Drink responsibly and stay safe out there.
