    Just spent the week up there and this thread was gnawing at me the whole time. I basically just packed up some beer from home and brought it camping with me. Would have much rather brought an empty growler to fill up there. Anyhoo, coming back home inspired me to do some research and I found these guys in P. Angeles.

    Sorry to revive a really old thread, but I've now been living in Sequim for the last few months. Best places I have found to shop are Marina Market, Central Market and the Pour House in Port Townsend. The Next Door Annex in PA is frankly pathetic (the local QFC has a more extensive bottle selection).

    Finally had a brew from Fathom & League today at the PA Crabfest. Still haven't found anything from The Hop Crew in Sequim. Saw a keg of porter from Dungeness brewing almost a year ago, but nothing since. These places are truly tiny and do not have much of a presence, even locally. If I'm up for a drive, I can hit Downpour in Kingston or Hood Canal. Silver City is not that much further, but they are available at the grocer.

    Im in Sequim and the Pouhouse in Port Townsend is definitely our best option wo going over the bridge. Next Door Annex is ok. Marina Market is good if you want to take a drive and Silverdale is getting a Total Wine. The Longhouse gets some good stuff occasionally. I work for a distributor so if you are looking for anything in particular, I have a pretty good idea if its around. Welcome to the OlyPen!

    Next time you go to PT, take the ferry across and go up to Oak Harbor. Go to Flyers for lunch, and maybe a growler fill if you're so inclined, and a stop at Whidbey Beer Works in downtown Oak Harbor. Small store, but usually has some interesting stuff. Decent prices too.

    Nice to know that I'm not the only BA in town. I totally forgot about the Longhouse. Drove by so many times before stopping because it was a gas station convenience store. Really nice inside, and picked up some Helldorado and Black Butte XXVII. Will definitely have some distro queries for you later in the season.

    Sounds like a nice day trip. Haven't yet taken the PT-Coupeville ferry, but I think a drive up to Oak Harbor may be in the near future.

    Food & Beer recs between Poulsbo and Port Angeles? I'm staying in Port Angeles but from what I can google there's not much there beer wise. Pourhouse looks good.

    Propolis recently opened their tasting room, that'll be worth checking out. I'm also a fan of Port Townsend Brewing, and always make a stop when I head over.

    Do they still bottle? Haven't seen their stuff in my neck of the woods for years.

    I saw some articles about Forks potentially getting a brewery in early 2015, but then nothing after that.

    Oh yeah, they've never had a lot of stuff on the shelves at any given time, but there's usually something around. With the new facility they can make more beer. Whether that means they'll go deeper into existing markets, or wider into newer markets, I don't know.

    Propolis? Yeah, they have a couple of variants at Huck's on the south hill.

    Actually, I meat Port Townsend. Once upon a time, you'd see their bottles around Spokane. Hadn't even thought of them in years until @beertunes mentioned them.

    Pretty much the same answer. I see their bottles here, and they usually have a good selection at the brewery. Their Barleywine is pleasant enough. Not sure what their distro is these days.
