in GOD'S Country

some local beer mongers, in no particular order of preference

Red Hook headquartered in lovely Fremont!

Hale's Ales located in Ballard... I play darts there all the time

Pyramid what I still consider the King of major micro-/craft- breweries

Elysian they may have a limp-wristed menu, but some of the best damn beer anywhere

Pike Brewery a great selection of beer, near Pike Place Market!

Dick's Beer the pride of Lewis County... this guy's pretty much my idol

Bottleworks not a brewery, "just" a store... and what a store!!!!

Boundary Bay Bellingham's finest. Their Scotch Ale is god's brow sweat

The Ram and Gordon Biersch a couple restaurants that brew their own

Snoqualmie Falls never been there, but had their stuff

Rogue they've got a place in Issaquah... great selection of beer

and, of course, the great local beerfests:

Fremont Oktoberfest

Summer Microbrew Fest

and there's a whole lot more... I'll add links as I find them/think of them
