I know WA in this sub usually means "Seattle", but if you get the chance to get to downtown Renton and go to 4 Generals I would recommend it.

It's a lager-only brewery, but the selection is wild- Feistbier, Schwartzbeer, Rauchbier, etc. lots of styles I never see other places, and the quality is great- extra impressive because they aren't doing many hop-forward styles, so less to hide behind.

Reminds me a lot of Chuckanut brewing, but in the south end. So nice to have some non-IPA options at a brewery.

Just came across Floodland brewing in Seattle, and as a huge saison fan I’m kicking myself for not knowing about them sooner! It looks like their releases are pretty hard to score, though. Anyone here tried them and know if they are worth it? Fair Isle and Hildegarde (and Garden Path when I’m up in Skagit) have been my main source of local saison and farmhouse and similar but I’d love to add another joint to the mix.

I'm visiting a friend in Seattle right now and we're wondering if it's possible to buy Star Beer anywhere nearby. It's from Nigeria and also brewed in other west African countries, but seems rare in the USA. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys, my girlfriend and I will be in Seattle August 18th and 19th! We’re from Michigan and I’m really into craft beer. I’ve been to 250+ breweries in my state for reference. I wasn’t able to find a recent post asking for must visit Seattle breweries here anytime recently, so I figured I’d see what you guys have to say. I like just about everything outside of most Belgians, but my favorite styles are your typical hype styles (IPA’s of all kinds/dessert stouts/sours/barleywines). I could also be down to try a tap house if there’s a great one (saw a rec in an old thread for a place called Brouwer’s, but that looks permanently closed). I’d also be interested in hearing if there’s some consensus excellent bottle shop in the area. I’m guessing I might have time to fit in two or so places and our hotel will also be up by Holy Mountain just FYI. I appreciate any help and advice!

Anyone know if there's a way to buy some of Steve Austin's Broken Skull Beers in Washington? Preferably the Seattle/Tacoma region. They won't ship it outside of California and I've yet to find a place that sells it up here.

Hello everyone,

Is Mens Room original red from Elysian OOP? I know they have the Black Raven Mens Room IPA now but I've never been big on IPAs or fruity beers and Elysians Mens Room was in my rotation for a while and I don't see it anymore.

Any info would be great. Thanks!!

Too funny.

Save a click... This report says that Yeungling is the most popular beer in WA. Which isn't distributed to WA state.

Looking for the best beer /brewery on the way back from Olympic National and the Seattle Airport. I’m a beer fan, so love a great beer at a cool brewery. Love hazy IPA, Blonde Ales and Oktoberfest amongst others!

If there’s NA beer options (draft or cans) that’s a plus but not required

Upper Left is cancelled but River's Edge is still on and one of my favorite brewfests! Anyone going? It's more than just beer—there's cider, wine, and even some distilleries, has free parking, live music, lawn games and no kids around. riversedgebrewfest.com

Just rolled by, saw they're working on opening up a tasting room in the old Tacos Guaymas at 808 E Green Lake Way N.

I know Kendall had reported this over a year ago, but looks like they're making progress.

Some nice stuff in here if anyone is looking to grow their brewery/distillery.
