Visiting Seattle

Kings Hardware on Ballard avenue has a pretty decent taplist for not being a beer bar and their burgers are excellent.

 

I went to Mike's probably more than 20 years ago. I remember thinking the chili was really good (and worth the hype). Those were the days before craft exploded but think I had a Redhook. Don't know what they have on tap but seems like a BMC kind of place.

 

Just got a message from another BA asking for recommendations, so I thought I'd bump this thread so that it stays nearer to the front page.

 

If he's here during Seattle Beer Week, make sure he sees this:
http://beermonger.blogspot.com/2012/04/full-list-of-seattle-beer-week-2012.html
and
http://www.seattlebeerweek.com/
Even if he's not, the places hosting events make a good list anytime.

 

Yeah, I linked him to this thread. I just thought if we bump this thread once a week or so, it'll be easier to find, and we won't have to keep reproducing the same thread.

 

Weekly bump to keep it near the front.

 

Boundary Bay just posted this on FB. Not only is it a list of where to get BB's brews, it's a pretty good WA beer bar list in general: http://www.bbaybrewery.com/listing.php?d=4

 

Weekly bump.

 

Last Drop put BB's Imperial IPA on tap today for growler fills. Didn't think it would find it's way to Seattle.

 

They don't even fill growlers at the brewery! Out of curiosity, how much are they charging for a growler?

 

I haven't had a chance to stop in, but I've never seen anything on their board for more than $16.

 

A 10oz goblet is $6 at the brewery, so a $16 growler would be a helluva deal.

 

Bumpitty of the weekly style.

 

Just bumpin' back to the front.

 

The "Road trippin to Seattle" thread reminded me that this guy needs a bump.

 

I'll be visiting this Wednesday through Tuesday. I'm not attending SeaFair.

 

Enjoy your visit! There's a ton of great breweries and bars. Big Time is a must hit. Have fun!

 

Big Time will probably do something for International IPA Day (tomorrow). Last year's Pineapple IPA was awesome.

 

I'm heading to Chuck's soon and hope to hit up Fremont UBG tomorrow for IPA Day. I'll definitely enjoy my stay!
