Back to EpisodesCrafting with Balls: Firestone Walker & Ernie Ball's Beer Collab Rock the IPA Scene
Description
In this episode of Up+Adam, we sit down with Matt Brynildson, the legendary Brewmaster at Firestone Walker Brewing Company. We kick things off by diving into Firestone Walker's exciting collaboration with Ernie Ball—Electric Eagle, a West Coast IPA that’s bursting with hop flavor and Central Coast attitude. Matt shares how this partnership came together, including how their mutual love of music and craft led to a quick and natural collaboration, and what makes this limited-release beer a true celebration of music, craftsmanship, and community.
We also explore the Brewmaster’s Collective, Firestone’s direct-to-consumer beer club that offers members exclusive access to artisanal small-batch creations, quarterly collections, and VIP experiences. Matt explains what sets the 2025 season apart, from the incredible barrel-aged offerings to the unique benefits that make the Brewmaster’s Collective a must-join for passionate craft beer fans.
