It’s supposed to be a hot one this Thursday with temperatures reaching well into the 90’s. I can’t think of a better way to stay cool than our air conditioning, and the beers of Russian River Brewing Company. We won’t have Vinnie or Natalie in attendance, but we will have 7 of their beers on tap.
Starts at Happy Hour.
Russian River Beers on tap:
Consecration
Ale with currants added and aged in oak barrels. 10.0%ABV
Damnation
Strong Golden Ale 7.0%ABV
Pliny The Elder
Double IPA 8.0%ABV
Temptation

This Saturday, Fremont attempts to reclaim the Guiness Book Of World Records title, for most Zombie impersonators gathered together in one spot at one time. Expect thousands of Zombies
roaming the streets out front of Brouwer’s Cafe, as well as inside. Apparently the next best thing to brains is strong malty beer and hard liquor. Come on down and watch the spectacle, or become a zombie yourself for one night.

Heads up, we’ll be closed this Sunday to observe the 4th of July.
There are plenty of bars around town that are going crazy for the world cup and opening their doors as early as 4am to show every match possible. We are not one of those bars. However there are a number of games that do fall within our operating hours. We will be showing the following list of games with the sound on through our massive stereo system. We’re even researching extra screens for the games.

2010 Beer Week was one hell of a party this year. I’d like to thank my partners in the Beer Collective for all the hard work we’ve done to get Beer week rolling the past 2 years. Internally I need to thank all of the staff here at Brouwer’s for the extra shifts and long hours to make the many wonderful events happen. This year was even bigger and more explosive than before.
The biggest thanks of course goes out to everyone who came down to our events and made them the best they could be. As a reward over the next couple weeks we will be re-tapping some of our favorites beers that we poured during beer week. So keep your eyes on the draft list and check your tweets because there will be some amazing beers on tap, without the beer week crowds.

This March marks 5 years of Brouwer’s Cafe being open for business. To commemorate ouyr anniversary we’re had 10 local breweries brew up a special IPA for us to have on during the month of march. With our official anniversary Date landing on Hard Liver, we’re celebrating Monday March 1st.
There will be one off IPA’s by Big Time, Black Raven, Boundary Bay, Elysian, Fremont, Hales, Pike, Port Townsend, Ram, Schooner Exact, & Skagit River.
Party Starts at 6pm!
Thursday, February 25th at 5pm, Brouwer’s Cafe will feature a line of 8 beers on tap from importers Duvel Moortgat. We will also offer a free Duvel glass with purchase of a Bottle of Duvel.
Tomorrow, February 24th, marks Bottleworks 11th anniversary as Seattle’s premier bottleshop.
Sorry for the short notice, Tonight starting at 5 pm we will be pouring 4 Russian River Beers…Pliny the Younger, Pliny the Elder, Damnation, and Supplication.
The much anticipated and very rare Pliny the Younger has reached Washington, after selling out at the brewery in a day, or was it a few hours…We have one 1/6 barrel and that is it, once it is gone it is gone…
11.0%ABV, 1.098 O.G, GOBS of BUs
Pliny the Younger was Pliny the Elder’s nephew, in the case of this beer, the “Younger” is a triple IPA. Pliny the Younger is hopped three times more than our standard IPA, and is dry hopped four different times.
Supplication: Brown Ale aged in French oak Pinot Noir barrels with three strains of Brettanomyces, Lactobacillus, Pediococcus and sour cherries .
I am sure you all are familiar with the other two so I won’t bother you with the details…Remember Younger and Supplication are rare and available in small quantities, they will not last long…show up late and you might miss em…
