Frieky Bones

This beer is a limited national release from the brewery’s Barrelworks Wild Ale Cellar. Frieky Bones is a reimagination of Krieky Bones, Barrelworks' classic Flanders-style Kriek beer. This time, brewers added twice the typical amount of Michigan-grown Montmorency cherries to the beer, creating an undeniable wild ale that doubles down on fruit flavors. Flavor profile: big fruit flavors with notes of sour cherry, oak, vanilla, and pie crust. 6.3% ABV

2022 Parabola

For the 2022 edition, Firestone took the extra step of aging the beer entirely in 12-year-old Heaven Hill bourbon barrels. These older-stock barrels accentuated Parabola's signature richness with vintage-specific notes of stone fruit, fudge, and tobacco. 14.1% ABV

2021 Double Barrel Parabola

Firestone Walker doubled down on their signature Parabola to create this limited small-batch release. While Parabola is historically aged for one year in premium bourbon barrels, the brewery transferred this edition to a separate lot of wheat whiskey barrels for another 12 months, for a total ageing of 24 months. The result is a smooth sipping experience, offering all the richness and intensity of Parabola with an added dimension of fudge and cereal grain-like goodness. 15.5% ABV

Hopnosis IPA

Hopnosis is a year-round India Pale Ale brewed with Cryo Hops pellets. The brewery double dry hops this beer with hop varieties from the U.S. and New Zealand, creating tropical fruit flavors including mango, passionfruit, white grape, and lychee. 6.7% ABV
