CASK Beer in Burien Today



On the second Wednesday of each month we release a keg of CASK-CONDITIONED beer at our pub in BURIEN that was brewed in West Seattle.


This month's selection is WEST SIDE BROWN ALE brewed with our house Belgian-style yeast and just a pinch of malt smoked over cherry wood. The combination of flavors work wonders together to produce a fine blend of malty sweetness and the faintest hint of hops.

New Logo for Our 13th Anniversary


Here's a look at a new logo being developed for our 13th Anniversary.

The beer, which we're brewing today together w/ guest brewer Jason Parker, will be called "
Saison de la Chance" since it's a 'Saison' style and, as the logo makes clear, we're playing on the various symbols associated with LUCK (= 'chance' in French).

Look for the logo on t-shirts, tattoos, and maybe a few other items that will be available for sale beginning the week of July 5th.


We'll also be posting a few photographs from today's brew showing the boys hard at work in the West Seattle brew house.

Anniversary #13


This Friday, June 4th we're brewing "Saison de la Chance" to commemorate thirteenth years of brewing in West Seattle.

Each year we collaborate with a different brewer to come up with a unique recipe for our anniversary, celebrated during the week of the West Seattle Street Fair (a.k.a. Summerfest), July 5-11th.

This year's guest brewer is West Seattle-ite,
Jason Parker. While he's been "retired" from the local brewing scene for a number of years, Jason was the original brewer at Pike Place Brewing on Western Ave., helped start Fish Brewing in Olympia, worked at Redhook when it was in Fremont and Pyramid when they still made beer on Royal Brougham. Suffice it to say, he earned his chops "back in the day" when craft brewing was in its infancy in Seattle. He's got lots of good stories to tell too!

We're very proud to have this local brewing legend agree to work with us to develop a beer for such a momentous and auspicious occasion. The recipe incorporates some unique ingredients, our Belgian yeast strain, and possibly some different hop varieties that we've not brewed with before. The resulting beer is designed to be a genuine thirst quencher for those sunny summer days that MUST be just around the corner!


Stay tuned for photos from Friday's brew day and a sneak peek at the logo being turned in to t-shirts, tattoos, and maybe event cycling jerseys!

Barrel-aged Beer for June


It's that time of the month again when we release another round of barrel-aged beers.


This month we've selected two beers aged in Heaven Hill Bourbon barrels: West Seattle will pour Brewer Dan's Imperial Stout and Burien will serve our Duwamish Dark Lager.

The Stout is HUGE in both flavor and aroma, boasting a strong vanilla and cocoa smoothness from the charred oak.

The Lager spent 14 months on the barrel and comes across much more subtle compared to the Stout, but with a slight sour cherry "twang."

Happy Cinco de Mayo

Barrel-aged Beer for MAY


It's that time of the month again when we release another of our barrel-aged beers.

This month we've selected our Sour Trippel. This beer was brewed by Anacortes Brewing using a our Belgian yeast strain. When the beer was done fermenting, they brought some kegs back to us and we aged them in the Brettanomyces barrels housed in our Burien brewery. A couple of months later, the beer had matured to a point where we liked the taste, and now it's ready to serve.

The beer is definitely sour, but with a faint layer of sweetness left over from the sugar remaining in the base beer. Be prepared for a wee bit of pucker, but that's the yeast talking, so listen up! Enjoy.

One small keg will be tapped at each of our pubs, so hurry in for your taste of this unique concoction.

Earth Day Beer Delivery


The first leg of the Earth Day Odyssey saw a keg of Organic Demolition Ale arrive in West Seattle on bus 560. The journey was about 8 miles and 30 minutes and powered by bio-diesel. (photo taken by Washington Beer Blog. See their story here.)










Yesterday was Earth Day and Team Elliott Bay loaded up a keg of Organic Demolition Ale and delivered it by pedal power to the Latona Pub in the Green Lake neighborhood. Here's Head Brewer, Doug Hindman, strapping down the keg in re-purposed kiddie trailer for the 13 mile trip across Seattle.




Just before taking off Thursday morning, Team EBBC (Brent Norton, Doug Hindman, and Todd Carden) swung by one of the West Seattle murals for a quick photo op. Yes, those are three horses pulling a trailer. Get it?
(photo by WS Blog. View their story here.)





We stopped off to snap a pic in front of Elliott Bay Park on our way along the Seattle waterfront, just north of downtown.








The crew and the keg arrived safely at their destination -Latona Pub in Green Lake- where they are serving only those kegs delivered w/o the assistance of car, truck or van. Happy Earth Day 2010, y'all!

JUST ANNOUNCED! : Elliott Bay Brewing Co. will host TWO events during SEATTLE BEER WEEK

We'll break out some
barrel-aged beers in BURIEN on Wed. May 19 from 6:00-9:00 PM. Details are still being worked out, but the general outline includes samples of five different barrel-aged beers, each paired with an appetizer. This will be a ticketed event and available to a limited number of participants. Stay tuned for details on price and appetizer pairings.

WEST SEATTLE plans to feature a full day of STRONG ALES on Thurs. May 20. The plan is to offer a sampler tray made up of Hoppus Callosum, Pro-Am Barley Wine, Demolition Ale, Belgian Brown Ale, and Imperial Stout. We'll have a limited amount of each beer on hand, so consider getting to the pub early for your best chance of getting in on this unique tasting opportunity.

Barrel-aged Beer : April 2010


It's that time of the month again (the first) when we release another of our barrel-aged beers.

This month we've selected a blend of two versions of our Pro-Am Barley Wine. Originally brewed back in September of 2008, we aged some of the batch in a Syrah barrel from DeLille Cellars in Woodinville and some in a Bourbon barrel from Heaven Hill Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky.

The Syrah version has taken on a bit of cherry tartness while the Bourbon version has maintained all the char and vanilla it had when we first tapped it in late 2009. Together they are divine! Enjoy.

One small keg will be tapped at each of our pubs TODAY, so hurry in for your taste of this unique concoction.

Hellmouth IPA Brewed Again


Hellmouth IPA, another in our series of Imperial or Strong IPA's, was brewed this week in Burien.

The name stems from the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer (which takes place in Sunnydale) and refers to "a focal point which serves as a portal between earth and Hell. The Hellmouth attracts demons and other supernatural creatures, becoming a "hot spot" for supernatural activity."

We thought that was a pretty good description of what happens when we ferment a 7% ABV beer in Burien (a.k.a. Sunnydale)!


Keep an eye out here for future updates on the release of this seasonal brew.

The Barrel Runneth Over


Here's a shot of Batch #1000 on day two of fermentation. We pulled out 60 gallons and fermented it in this second-run wine barrel from Woodinville. As you can see, the yeast was quite happy!

Next week we'll bring over the remainder of the batch, which is still fermenting in West Seattle, and split it between three other red wine barrels we've been saving for this project. One barrel will be just the beer and the wood; one will get an infusion of fruit; and the third will undergo a secondary fermentation with a strain of Brettanomyces, in hopes it will pick up some additional sourness. Big fun in B-town!

Batch #1000 Brewed in West Seattle!


We reached a milestone at our West Seattle pub, where we brewed our 1000th batch on 02.19.10. The recipe, based on our Red von Boorian, will undergo a number of different "treatments" while in our care, including fermentation with three different yeast strains and aging on fruit in red wine barrels.

Pictured here are a few stages along the way during the brew day.

/Harvesting aerated wort from the WS brew house/











/Brewer Dan loading the van for transport to Burien/








/Unloading kegs filled with wort/








/Filling a barrel in Burien with West Seattle wort/

We'll actually ferment in this sixty-gallon barrel, eventually blending-to-taste with beer from three other oak barrels. We're not certain when any of this will be ready for release, but rest assured readers of this blog and folks tuned in to our Twitter and Facebook feeds will be the first to know!
