The beers are invited, but you don’t need an invitation. You just need to show up and enjoy some best-of-breed Imperial IPAs. Everybody is welcome at the Noble Fir (assuming you’re over 21). This Friday at 4:00, the Noble Fir will swing open the doors and the 2nd Annual Imperial IPA Invitational will get started. The lineup is remarkable. We have the list of beers below.
Expect a large crowd. The place will pack-out almost instantly at 4:00, but the crowd comes and goes. The beers will pour until they’re gone. Meaning, the most rare and desirable beers will blow first. Others will last (perhaps) through the weekend. One last bit of advice, consider using public transportation or Uber. Be safe out there. These are big beers.
Here’s the list of beers. I wouldn’t be surprised if some additional treats made it into the mix by Friday, but this is the list they sent us today.
