Topping Off Barrels w/ Batch #1000


Another memorable day in Burien!

Today we filled two wine barrels with what remained of West Seattle Batch #1000. Both oak barrels pictured at left formerly housed Washington red wines, but now they're being re-purposed as aging vessels for our once-in-a-brewer's-lifetime batch 1K.


Eventually beer from four different oak wine barrels will be blended together, but we can't say exactly when. You'll just have to keep reading this blog to find out when you can get a taste!

Brewers Night @ Beveridge Place : 3/25


BREWERS NIGHT @ the BEV : Thursday, starting at 7:00 PM, we'll be pouring beer and tossing out schwag in the Morgan Junction.

Come on out and taste some interesting beers from both of our pubs, including a cask-conditioned keg of Pro-Am IPA (cask), Burien Birthday Imperial IPA, B-Town Brown Ale, Demolition Ale, and Belgian Black IPA.

You do like hops, right?! If not, we'll be giving away t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, gift certificates, and growlers.

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.
