    Firestone Walker has created something so darn spe Firestone Walker has created something so darn special with their Invitational! The invited breweries aren’t just the big-name producers drawing all the attention and accolades; smaller craft breweries pour right alongside them. They stand side by side without any hierarchy, each given the same space and consideration, and you’d be hard-pressed to tell which are the smallest operations in the lineup.
 
The best breweries from around the world come together here. Not just ones from across the country, which is already an impressive feat (how does all that beer make its way here in perfect condition? What airport did everyone fly into? Where is everyone staying?! Fun fact: a lot of them camped. We could write a whole article just about the moving parts), but from far beyond it. Breweries from New Zealand, Belgium, Mexico, Japan, and so many more made the journey, thanks to a personal invitation from Brewmaster Matt Brynildson. Another fun fact: every year all the brewers spend a day together at Ravine Waterpark. It’s all nothing short of a logistical marvel. And a real party. 
 
And the food! This isn’t just a beer festival, and the food partners know it. Every restaurant showed up ready to deliver. We were served fresh ceviche, crispy fried shrimp, pulled pork with pickled onions and cornbread, buttery double smashburgers - and so much more...a dozen plates more. 
 
We are so very lucky to have a fest of this caliber right here at home. It’s one of many increasingly frequent moments in SLO County that make us stop and think “I can’t believe this is here!” in the best possible way. It is a feeling that never quite loses its luster.
