We’ve called Firestone Walker’s Brewmaster’s Collective the “Tesla of Beer Clubs,” and, now in its sixth year, it continues to impress.

In 2021 Firestone Walker introduced the Brewmaster’s Collective, a beer club that connects the brewery’s most interesting brews with its most passionate followers. And it was one of the best beer clubs we’d ever seen.

In 2022, the Brewmaster’s Collective expanded the club its reach to beer lovers in Kentucky, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Vermont and Virginia, plus Washington DC.

In 2023, 2024 and 2025 its beer club’s membership sold out almost overnight…

That’s how good it is. That’s how exclusive its offerings are.

And on November 7, Firestone Walker opened enrollment for the 2026 edition of its Brewmaster’s Collective Beer Club. Enrollment will only remain open until capacity which is limited to 1,250 members is reached. But we do suggest that if you want to be part of the club you act quick, because, if past is prologue, this thing will fill fast.

Marking Firestone Walker’s milestone 30th anniversary, the 2026 Brewmaster’s Collective features 21 barrel-aged beers and four small-batch releases from the brewery’s Venice-based Propagator R&D brewhouse, each crafted to showcase the intersection of innovation, collaboration, and craft.

Highlights (and there are almost to many) of the 2026 beer club include…

3(DB)²A — Triple Barrel-Aged Double DBA
Stickee Ickee — A variant of the acclaimed Stickee Monkee brew
Parabanilla — A new take on Parabola
Double Jack, Pale 31, and Wookey Jack — long-awaited returns from Firestone Walker’s archives
Exclusive Collaborations with Everywhere Beer, Bottle Logic, and Cellarmaker

And each collection includes a barrel-aged lineup and an exclusive 16oz four-pack from the Propagator, such as Double Jack, Pale 31, Oaktoberfest, and Wookey Jack.

“It took us 25 years to launch our first beer club, and now we can’t imagine life without it,” said Brewmaster Matt Brynildson….

 “It is not only enabling us to create some really interesting beers—it’s also fostering a deeper personal connection with our most passionate fans. These are going to be some of the most inventive and creative beers we’ve ever produced. For 2026, we’ve lined up some mind-blowing collaborations and deep barrel explorations that you won’t find anywhere else. It’s the ultimate backstage pass to Firestone Walker.”

Membership to the 2026 Brewmaster’s Collective Beer Club beers is $399 plus tax and shipping (or $425 in installments), with the option of delivery or pickup at Firestone Walker’s locations in Paso Robles, Buellton, and Venice. The club is open to residents of CA, KY, NE, NH, ND, PA, VT, VA, and Washington DC.
