This week David Walker and crew along with team Origlio have been making their way to better beer establishments around Philly. Yesterday the Firestone Walker beer express stopped at Capone's to spread some afternoon delight. As it's been for most of the stops Abacus, Walker's Reserve and Double Jack were on tap and the 14th Anniversary was served from from bottles.
Looks like the hardest marketing man in beer Sam Calagione isn't the only one who knows how to work a room. David Walker definitely understands the importance of talking shop and shaking hands when it involves launching a new market. The rock star analogy was hard to avoid with cameras clicking, the frequent requests to sign bottles and admirers eager for a few minutes of conversation. It's proof that if you bring great beer to Philly the town will love you. With the introduction of Firestone Walker it appears that David Walker is quickly achieving star status.
*Firestone Walker express rolls into Resurrection Ale House Friday (4/15) from 5-7pm.*
