    Didn't try it, it was pricey. Slices were $5, a 10 inch- 2 topping was 12(IIRC), and a large two topping was pushing 25. I'll go back with a group and split one. Sandwiches were more reasonably priced.

    The pizza at the old place was pretty good, the one day I tried it, which also happened to be their 2nd last day they were open.

    Structure's Dopethrone is pretty rad. Huge papaya/mango bomb (nose is incredible), but balanced with a superb bittering throughout. Hope this one makes it into cans.

    The keg blew at Chucks right before I got there yesterday.

    That's what I had on my New Years Brewery Stroll (Trademark, Patent Pending) when I was there yesterday. It was OK to me, I finished my pint happily enough, but, these murky beers just don't push my buttons. I woulda got another, different, beer there, but they were closing up, so, I ventured forth. I posted on Untappd, and I thought it was amongst the ugliest beers ever, but, the only comment posted to that check-in was about how beautiful was. Strokes for folks.

    Began as a three-barrel nano adjoining a bowling alley, started winning medals (named small brewery of the year at this summer's Washington Beer Awards), recently stepped up to a 30-barrel brewhouse and launched regional distribution. (There's also another, smaller brewery in town, St. Brigid's.)

    Structures dropped a new opaque IPA yesterday, Long Bright Dark. Had a couple pints. Solid enough for a hazebomb. Available in 4 packs of 16oz cans for $16.

    According to a FB post, Menace will be open in their new facility on Meridian Street later this afternoon. Looking forward to checking the new joint out.

    Forgot. Plus, I haven't tried it yet. But, mostly I just spaced on it.

    Beer Junction did too. They had quite a bit left as of this afternoon.

    No, the FB post I saw didn't mention anything other than "we'll be opening in a few hours". I'll go look in a few minutes.

    They opened at 6:45 last night. Couldn't find hours posted. I'll probably go check 'em out tomorrow.

    They released their IPA again??? I thought they wanted to avoid making IPAs

    I stopped by last night. Didn't get to check out much of the space because it was pretty crowded. Tried their stout and IPA. Stout wasn't too shabby, and the IPA made me wish I had ordered Fuzz, which was a guest tap.

    Yeah, their base IPA has always been more English style than NW. I saw they had Chile Bravo on, which is one of the better chile beers I've had. I'm just happy they're finally open.

    For now, menace will be closed Mon-Tues, and opening at 4 on Weds. I expect lots of adjustments in opening hours for a while.
