    Hey Guys,

    I'm wondering if anyone has seen any Achel around Seattle lately? I'm hoping to find a bottle or two (any style would be great), for a beer tasting next week. Haven't seen it recently at any of my usual haunts.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    I'm fairly certain I saw a few different Achels at special brews in lynnwood recently.

    Cheers!

    Special Brews is your best bet. Since Achel is distributed by Shelton Bros it's been hard to come by in Washington lately, but I have picked up a couple bottles @ SB.

    I guess Special Brews is the place. I picked up a bottle of the Bruin at Beveridge Place not too long ago.

    BPP? In West Seattle? And they let you take it out?

    Yeah. Is that a big deal?

    Not a big deal, but surprising. I didn't realize you could do that at BPP. Is their entire bottle list like this?

    Those bottles at Special Brews are ones they've had on hand for a while I assume?

    Not sure how long they've had them. They just celebrated their first anniversary recently.

    Thanks. I may need to head up there and grab a couple. I've never been to the shop.
