Events

New Belgium has been one of our favorite breweries for a long time.  They make great beer, and their business philosophy is spot on, they are employee owned after all.  They have an amazing sour and wood aged program that they have invested time and energy over many years.  Have you heard of their “Lost in the woods” event?  They have some new and limited beers coming out of “the forest”, and we are happy to be pouring some of these new beers.  We are hoping that all works out and these beers are available in time for our event.  We will also be pouring some beers that we have kept in our cellar for a bit.

We are hoping to be pouring:

Trans Atlantic Kriek 17

Vintage La Folie (year tbd)

Tart Lychee

Sour Saison

Bottle pours of Vintage La Folie ’09

Single Foeder Felix
Felix aged in Apple Whiskey

We are planning on having some oh so secret tacos available that evening as well.

Additionally, our friend Jaime Mastin (one of the first hires at New Belgium) and Mike Butler (another New Belgium employee) will be spinning their favorite records starting at 8pm.

 

 

 

We invite you to join us for an evening with Engine House #9 from Tacoma.  E-9 has been putting out some of our favorite beers, we reached out to Shane, we pulled some beers from the cellar, and he is sending up some new beers for this event.

We are still working with E-9 with what will be available for the event.

We look forward to seeing you.

 

 

 

We welcome you to join us for an evening with Dogfish Head.  We are pulling a few kegs from the cellar, like 2015 Palo Santo, as well as picking up a few new beers, Vanilla World Wide Stout.  It all kicks off at 6pm.  The draftlist will include:

2015 Palo Santo Marron

Oak- Aged Vanilla World Wide Stout

120 Min IPA

Siracusa Nera Stout

and a couple other beers yet to be determined.

We hope you join us for a chance to drink these amazing beers.

 

The show (sub-titled The Beer In Front Of Me) will include Dave Buhler, Adam Robbings, and Bradley Zimmerman. Click here for the link to the Facebook event.
After opening remarks from the YOOTT staff of knuckleheads (that includes me) we will introduce the panel and at that point Dave, Brad, and Adam will join us on the stage.
The point of this and all YOOTT shows is to have fun. FUN! We will however be tackling some serious, and I dare say ‘political’ issues in our conversation which is a first for YOOTT. I will be soliciting questions from the audience at times. My main goals will be to drink The Beer In Front Of Me and having fun. I cannot imagine failing these goals given the characters and experience that will be together on the dais.

We like to kick every Seattle Beer Week off here at Brouwer’s Cafe with our Underberg Back In Black Stout Fest.  Not familiar with Underberg?  Not sure you get the connection, we urge you to come down and try one you will certainly understand the connection after that.  It really helps to settle the stomach.  All year long we hide the darkest and blackest of the black stouts for this event.  Some we have had for a few years, others are new releases.  Mark you calendars and come down to enjoy, your palette will not be disappointed.  We will be posting most of the draft list soon, stay tuned for that.

Does anyone remember this day? No?  Well let us fill in the details for you.  It was a Tuesday, almost 2 years ago during Seattle Beer Week, our friends at Barley Brown’s, Boneyard, and Melvin got together to share their collabeeration during an event called “Rise of the 3 Headed Hop Monster”, Jeremy from Melvin brought his black Hearse and we had one hell of a party.

A few weeks ago they got together again, this time at Boneyard and re-brewed this beer.  We are proud to be hosting re-release of this beer “The Return of the 3 Headed Hop Monster”, Saturday, April 1st at 3pm.  We will also have a few other tasty adult beverages from the aforementioned breweries.  We hope to see you Saturday.
