One or our favorite new breweries, Reuben’s Brews, is turning 1 and we thought it would be fun to throw a party in their honor. On Monday, August 5 we will be pouring some 4 draft beers to celebrate their anniversary, an Anniversary Session Pale, Rye IPA, and Roggenbier and one yet to be decided upon option as Adam is looking around to see what he has available.
–> Thursday, August, 15thFirestone Walker PNC #3 launch. The PNC or Publicans National Committee is a small group of select craft beer bar owners that includes Tornado, Falling Rock, Monks Cafe and Apex and our 3 establishments here in Seattle. This beer will only be available at these fine establishments. This beer is a Buckwheat Stout aged in Tequila barrels that comes in at 13.7%. Bottleworks will be selling Bottles and pouring draft all day, while supplies last. Burgundian and here Brouwer’s will tap the beer at 11am. We will probably have some other delicious Firestone options available as well.
