Seattle Trip Overview
TOUR INCLUDES REUBEN’S BREWS, STOUP BREWING, AND OBEC BREWING.
In the center of Ballard’s Brewing District, these three breweries stand out. At each guided tasting we will learn about the different beer styles, what to look for when you are tasting beer, the history of beer, and the craft brewing renaissance in the Pacific Northwest. For example we’ll learn how an obscure export ale for British soldiers was reborn in the Pacific Northwest to become the most popular craft beer style in North America or how a small Czech town gave its name to one of the world’s most popular beer styles.
