Renowned brewmasters Matt Brynildson and Firestone Walker have announced their 2025 Brewmaster Collective Beer Club, an exclusive club curated for passionate beer aficionados. Subscribers will receive a curated assortment of small-batch, artisan barrel-aged beers, alongside four unique rare and limited-edition offerings from Firestone Walker’s R&D brewery located in Venice, California.
“The Brewmaster’s Collective allows us to share our most favored brews with our most passionate consumers,” expressed Brynildson. “With the 2025 edition, the club is evolving through innovative collaborations and thorough explorations of barrel aging, generating enthusiasm among our most devoted beer fans.”
Entering its fifth year, the Brewmaster’s Collective has become a hallmark of creativity, partnership, and innovation at Firestone Walker, providing members with access to the brewery’s top-tier small-batch selections.
Key highlights for the 2025 beer club include collaborations with several of the industry’s leading breweries, including Horus, Lervig, Green Cheek, Pinthouse, Revolution, Omnipollo, and Frau Gruber.
Beginning in January 2025, new members will receive a welcome kit that features the member-selected Collective Choice Batch #4 Stout, as well as branded merchandise and a membership card.
In mid-February 2025, members will be introduced to The Verse Collection, consisting of a bottle of Parabola, an Imperial Stout aged in Bourbon barrels; Ancho & Fig Parabola, an Imperial Stout infused with Ancho chili and fig; Damien Barleywine, an English Barleywine matured in Bourbon barrels; and a collaborative Stout with Green Cheek & Pinthouse featuring torched marshmallow, banana, and peanut butter. Additionally, members will receive a Saison with Pear and a four-pack of 16-ounce cans of Propagator.
