This Week in Seattle Beer (12/15 to 12/21)
The beer events just never stop. Here's what Seattle has this week (thanks to the commenters who helped me fill in the gaps in my original post):
12/15
Georgetown's Full Throttle Bottles is co-hosting a winter beer tasting with the BottleNeck Lounge tonight. $10 gets you four 4-ounce tastes plus a full pint. Beers served are: Anderson Valley Winter Solstice, Iron Horse Quilter's Irish Death, Gulden Draak Vintage Ale 2008 and Delirium Noel. In addition to the beer, there will be snacks, t-shirt giveaways and other merriment. Gets under way at 8pm at the BottleNeck at 23rd and Madison.
Also on Monday, yet another Big Time event. This one is a brewer's night at Latona Pub. Not sure what Bill Jenkins will be bringing, but I'm sure they'll have some good stuff. Things get started at 8pm.
12/16
Naked City Taphouse is hosting a brewer's night featuring Everett's Lazy Boy Brewing. Brewer/Owner Shawn Loring will be in attendance and all Lazy Boy beers will be pouring at Happy Hour prices. They'll also have raffles for brewery t-shirts and glassware. Things get started at 7pm.
The event formerly known as "Wreck the Randall" continues this year as the Santa & Friends Pub Crawl. This night of debauchery starts at 5pm at the Pub at Piper's Creek and makes stops at Brouwer's, The Dray and the Park Pub before finishing up at Duck Island at 8pm. Many of the revelers will be in costume, but all that's necessary for this night is the ability to drink a lot and the desire to spread holiday cheer (or something like that). At the Duck at 8pm, they'll be tapping a keg of Full Sail's Wreck the Halls Randallized with Centennial hops and a keg of He'Brew Bittersweet Lenny's RIPA Randallized with rye whiskey wood chips.
12/15 to 12/17
Brouwer's is showcasing beers from Delaware's Dogfish Head this week. Several beers from Dogfish's lineup (60 Minute IPA, 90 Minute IPA, Indian Brown Ale, Raison D' Etre, Chicory Stout & Punkin Ale) will be pouring all week. Special kegs will be tapped at 6pm each night from Monday-Wednesday. Monday is the 120 Minute IPA, Tuesday is World Wide Stout and Wednesday is Pangaea.
12/18
On Thursday night, West Seattle's Beveridge Place Pub is hosting their first sit-down tasting at the pub's new location. Admission is $40 and includes all beer tasting, snacks, tax and tip. Beers offered include: Palma Louca (Brazil), Hitachino Celebration ’06 (Japan), Hambleton Toleration (England), Anchor Our Special Ale ’07 Magnum (California), Hair of the Dog Fred Batch #? (Oregon), Quatre Centieme (Canada), Haand Dark Force Stout (Norway), and a few Belgian beers not on BP's regular menu. You have to pre-pay for this one and space is seriously limited, so give them a call and make sure there's still spots available. If you don't get a seat at the tasting, you can still enjoy good beer at BP...they're also going to be tapping a cask of Schooner Exact's 3-Grid IPA that night.
