Firestone Walker No Ends Only Beginnings 2022

Introducing No Ends, Only Beginnings – a new imperial stout aged in bourbon barrels, made in collaboration with our friends at Highland Park Brewery in Los Angeles.

The name is a nod to the idea that both brewers are constantly, in Bob’s words, “turning the knobs” to evolve and perfect our barrel-aged beers, and the fact that collaboration is always a great way to explore new ideas and move them forward.

As a result, No Ends, Only Beginnings is stuffed with chocolate and roast barley malts. On top of that, it was aged for a year in premium bourbon barrels to bring it all together.

This is a momentous stout. Aromas of semi-sweetened dark chocolate, fig, and vanilla meet flavors of bourbon and baking spices. Simultaneously viscous and smooth, it’s a collaboration not to be missed.
