“Paso Robles Pioneer Day Committee is very appreciative of the ongoing partnership with Firestone Walker,” said Sarah Kramer, Chairperson of the Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Festival committee. “Our partnership makes sense as the pioneers of Paso Robles and Firestone Walker both have roots as farmers and ranchers.

Added Nick Firestone, “This is the 12th edition of the Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Festival, and it just keeps getting better. It continues to be an impactful community event, and we’re proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with our friends to stage a celebration of beer culture like no other.”
