Who else is ready for Friday? Get this weekend going with some house favorites, like our wild cod and chips.
With “The Shat” having been successfully shot into space, we’re celebrating with our annual autumn release of Space Church IPA. This out-of-this-world beer returns with all of it's citrusy, tropical-fruit-like goodness. Loaded with Galaxy, Citra and Comet hops, there's a reason it's one of our most popular beers and tends to go fast.
Available in cans and on draft at both locations.

𝗡𝗲𝗶𝗻, 𝗡𝗲𝗶𝗻, 𝗡𝗲𝗶𝗻: 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗪𝗲𝘁 𝗛𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝗚𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻-𝗦𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲 𝗣𝗶𝗹𝘀𝗻𝗲𝗿. Brewed with more than a hundred pounds of wet, fresh Sterling hops from Crosby Farms in Oregon, the simplicity of this beer really allows the spicy and subtle citrus notes from the Sterlings to shine through. 5.0% ABV.
The Story Behind the Name: In our odd numbering system, this was supposed to be batch #999, but the fresh hops were ready for picking earlier than planned. So, it was Nein, Nein, Nein (no, no, no) to our plans. You, however, will want to say “Ja, Ja, Ja” (yes, yes, yes) to this delicious Pilsner.
Available in cans, while they last and, of course, on draft.
Brunch is on, every weekend morning starting at 10 at The Bistro & Beer Garden. This weekend’s offerings include Crepes with fresh mango and cream cheese and Chorizo Quiche with spicy roasted Hungarian peppers.
Pair them with a Bloody Mary for a great start to your weekend.
We’re prepping up Jambalaya with house-made, fresh ground Andouille sausage for the conclusion of our Street Eats Thursdays at The Tap Room & Brewery. Food on at 4, till it runs out.
Could this be it? The last 70+ degree day of 2021? Both of our locations offer outdoor seating – the perfect place for enjoying a pint or two on this beautiful Saturday. Plus, you can get brunch, lunch or dinner at The Bistro & Beer Garden.
Pictured here is our Kölsch – a crisp, delicate beer that features a pleasant, hoppy bitterness and is super drinkable. We think it’s a great beer for a lovely day like this in the PNW.
Tis the Season: The first of our wet hop beers hits our taps today. Fresh Amarillo cones from Crosby Hop Farms give this hybrid pale/IPA a fresh, smooth, aroma and flavor-packed punch.
5.7% ABV and available at both places.
It’s still nice enough to sit outdoors, but we’re ready for the flavors of fall and the return of our favorite soups. On now at the Bistro & Beer Garden is this spicy Italian sausage soup with house made vegetable broth. #fallfoods #soupweather
Thanks to all of you who came out last night for the kickoff of Oktoberfest. The celebration continues at both locations today with more Zapfhahn Festbier and amazing German food specials at The Bistro & Beer Garden.
Special thanks to The Bonnie Birch Bavarian Band for entertaining the crowd at The Tap Room & Brewery.
Note that, due to a temperamental barrel, we’re not going to be able to do the barrel tapping this afternoon at The Bistro.
Also on at the Bistro & Beer Garden: Jagerschnitzel! Breaded pork loin with mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes, and wine braised red cabbage and pears.
Our Oktoberfest specials are on at the Bistro & Beer Garden! Start with a giant 10 oz soft baked pretzel to go with a mug of this year’s Zapfhahn Festbier.

We’re hoping the winds aren’t too strong so we can have outdoor seating at The Tap Room & Brewery. We will have the big doors open in some fashion for good airflow. The Bistro & Beer Garden will have some covered, outdoor seating available. It's open seating at both places. And, a reminder that masks are required when you’re indoors and not eating or drinking.
Zapfhahn, our Munich-style Festbier releases tomorrow and marks the official start of our Oktoberfest celebration.
In the festival tents of Munich, you’ll find liters of Wiesn Bier – the traditional Festbier of Oktoberfest. Our version uses German Pilsner, Munich and CaraHell malts, which results in a subtly sweet body – balanced with floral and spicy notes from Hallertauer Perle and Mittelfrüh hops.
We’ll have it on tap and in 4-packs when we open at both places. At The Tap Room & Brewery, we’ll tap a wooden gravity barrel of it at 5pm.
