Heading to WA State on Vacation

[dschoemaker]

Any suggestions on breweries, brewpubs or bottles/cans to look for while I am there? Staying just outside Seattle, but going to travel all over the place.

Thanks in advance.

And get a Dirt Track Brown...I know, hard to get excited by a Brown...until you get a slug of this beauty!

mac and jacs in seattle, diamondknot in mukilteo holds a special place in my heart this time of year they should have their cream ale (and they serve their meals on a red hot slab of granite), scuttlebutt in Everett is decent, pike place brewing co in seattle is a "must go." Elysian of course, redhook isn't too far away... That's about all i can get off the top of my head, craft breweries and distilleries have been popping up everywhere in WA, but Uncle Sam doesn't let me home much

If you can get to Ballard just north of downtown Seattle there are over a dozen micros within a healthy walking distance. Rueben's is my favorite but there a lot of other greats as well, Hales, Freemont, Stoup, Populuxe (small but cool), Hilliards (Great lager).

Reuben's just opened a new taproom and they have a ton of their own offerings, lot's of hard to get styles and the Crickey IPA is outstanding.

Cheers!
