Today we brewed the first batch of Imperial von Boorian, a strong-ish Pale Ale fermented with Belgian ale yeast and hopped like an American Double IPA.
When we left the brewery today the tank was already fermenting, a good sign indeed!
Hop varieties include Columbus, Chinook, Amarillo, and Simcoe.
Specs: OG = 16.8P; IBU = 78; Color = 8.0 SRM
We'll host a barrel-aged beer sampling and tapas-style food pairing during Seattle Beer Week.
The cost is $40.00 per person (incl. tax + tip) and will include five samples of beer we've aged in various barrels, including bourbon, brandy, syrah, and a couple of sour versions out of brettanomyces-inoculated french wine barrels.
The event will take place in Burien on Saturday, May 9, starting at 6:00 PM. Space is limited, so make reservations early. Call 206.246.4211 [1st session SOLD OUT!]

- an Imperial (Double) IPA now on tap at our W. Seattle pub. You won't want to miss out on this one...a citrus hop giant with a massive malt backbone...18.8P / 7.6 ABV / 75 IBU. Dry-hopped with Amarillo and Simcoe
Don't delay, get your Cask Fest tickets NOW. On line tickets are now SOLD OUT for BOTH sessions.
Our W. Seattle pub is already SOLD OUT of Session #1 tickets and Burien only had three left as of 5/24. Some Session #2 tickets are available at both pubs.
Check other local outlets for tickets to this weekend's event.
Elliott Bay will be pouring Organic Riot Ale, Bourbon Stout, and Herbert's von Burien.
The time has come for bold and decisive action! Our crack team of economic advisors (and two brewers) proudly announce the Elliott Bay Brewhouse "Beer Stimulus Package."
Our plan includes a unique, non-partisan, three-pronged approach:
(1) Double Happy Hour 7 days a week: 3:00-6:00 and 10:00-close
(2) Half Price Growlers of house-brewed beer each Tuesday
(3) Hand-crafted ORGANIC beer goodness in each and every glass.
Our next seasonal beer coming out of the W. Seattle pub will be a Belgian-style Wit. Spiced w/ coriander seeds and flavored with chamomile flowers and Seville oranges from the Trappist monks at Spencer Abbey, this unfiltered wheat beer has a moderately zesty, citrusy frutiness to pair with its pale straw color.
The recipe includes flaked wheat and oats, both of which lend a smoothness and light creaminess to this cloudy, refreshing springtime ale.
Look for it to arrive on tap in both pubs in late April.
St. Patrick's Day is upon us and we're ready to celebrate! Join us at either (or both) of our pubs for some of the food and drink that defines this festive holiday.
Serving at BOTH locations: St. Patty’s Day Melt, Corned Beef and Cabbage, No Doubt Chocolate Stout Cupcakes, Kid’s Irish Pesto Pasta, Green Pilot Light, Irish Red Lager, Guinness, and Irish Mist.
WS only: No Doubt Beef and Mushroom Stew
Burien only: Blackened Salmon Spinach Avocado Salad, Shepherd’s Pie, Corned Beef Hash Quesadilla.
The Helles [hell-us] is brewed! This most typical of Bavarian "session" lagers will grace the taps of both Elliott Bay pubs in the next week or so.
Especially in the summer, rivers of Helles are still served as a quaffing brew in liter-size glass mugs in beer halls and beer gardens all over Bavaria. When brewed to perfection, a Helles rewards the drinker with the most sublime balance of subtle, rich, elegant maltiness and lingering hoppiness.
This recipe was brewed in West Seattle as the last in our recent series of lager-style beers. PROST!
On Saturday, March 7th our Burien Brewhouse will celebrate its SECOND birthday!
Festivities include music by the Adrian Xavier reggae band (8:00 PM); the release of Burien Birthday Beer #2, a Märzen-style lager; a kids activity table; and food specials like Clams and Mussels in Green Curry, BBQ Chicken Salad, Berbere Turkey Burger, Petite New York, and Brewhouse Mud Pie dessert.
Stop by for a pint (or two) and help us celebrate another successful year of serving the craft beer and comfort food needs of B-Town, WA.
