Northwest Washington Update

I think the only lager from pFriem I've had is the pils, but good Christ is that a tasty pils.

 

I hadn't heard that, I wish Bryan all the best. Can't think of a much better place for him to go, love pFriem and what they are doing.

Will can run that brewery from almost anywhere in the world, it is a top notch operation, with South Nut now too there should be no shortage of excellent Chuckanut beers to go around. Been enjoying a fair amount of their Helles lately.

 

Don't sleep on the Vienna Lager, either.

 

Glad to hear this. I revere Chuckanut's beers. I still crave the opportunity to try their Rauch Bier.

 

I know, I know. Nobody likes 'em, so nobody makes 'em.

 

Juice Willis sure didn't last long down in Seattle this morning. I think there's some at Structures in Bellingham.

 

Cans only @ Chucks, they had a cask at Structures but thats it I think.

 

I really wish Structures was open later than 8 on Saturdays.

 

They tapped a keg of it today as well. Cask with POG Juice was last night.

 

Stopped in last night to find that they're now open until 9PM on Saturday. Tried Juice Willis and definitely liked it a lot. Was told that Chuck's sold out of Juice Willis cans in an hour and a half.

 

And on that note, regarding Chuck's, which of the 1,823 modes of social media are they active on, if any? I have the BookFace, and I lurk on Twitter, but I don't see much activity from them on either. Am I missing one? Snapgram? InstaFace? Linkterest? I'm fine if it's just good ol' word of mouth, but living 35 minutes away from the place, I'd like to make my visits a little more intentional if possible, possibly coinciding with a release such as this. Or, perhaps it's the brewer's notice? I've tried to use Block 15's Google Sheets, but the last delivery to Seattle was two days early. (Oh, you first-world problems!)

 

Instagram is probably your best bet for Chucks, maybe even joining the Beer Tasting Seattle Facebook group since some of the guys who work at Chucks post on there regularly.

 

Yeah, they made a couple posts about the Juice Willis beer on IG... when it was being released, and when they were sold out.
