This is a good time to share some news that we learned about a while ago but never got around to mentioning. Kevin Davey, who previously brewed with Will Kemper at Chuckanut Brewery in Bellingham, and then at Firestone Walker Brewing in California, is now back in Washington working as the head brewer at Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant in Seattle.
We mention this now because we just learned that Gordon Biersch will introduce a Brewers Select series of beers. Not just here in Seattle, but at other Gordon Biersch locations as well, the brewer gets to select his own recipe and flex some creative muscle. Special menu items are offered as part of the limited beer release. Kevin Davey has brewed up a Mosaic Pilsner. Presumably, the beer is a Pilsner brewed using Mosaic hops—an old world beer brewed with new world hops. The beer will be released at a tapping party on March 5th at the Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant in Seattle. It will then be available for the rest of the month.
Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant has more than 30 locations across the nation. The Seattle locations is downtown at Pacific Place, 600 Pine Street.
Here is the press release from Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant:

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (February 24, 2014) – Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant welcomes spring with the tapping of Brewer’s Select and a limited-time menu featuring three new entrées. Varying by location, this popular beer release is brewed in-house and selected by each local brewer. Brewer’s Select showcases a wide range of styles from an Imperial Pilsner to an Alt Bier, while still adhering to Gordon Biersch’s exacting standards.
In Seattle the Brewer’s Select will be a Mosaic Pilsner and will be available from March 5 through March 30 or until the beer is depleted. Guests can be one of the first to try the new beer and menu offerings at a tapping party held on 3/5 at 5:00 pm.
Gordon Biersch will pair Brewer’s Select with a limited-time menu which includes a new starter, Porter Meatballs (meatballs topped with cremini mushrooms in a porter cream sauce and garnished with crispy onion strings), and three new entrées:
Redwood Porter Chicken (Seasoned chicken breast, sautéed with mushrooms and grilled red onions in a porter cream sauce, accompanied by garlic mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus)
Rancher’s Bison Burger (Half-pound lean bison burger topped with goat cheese spread, pepperoncini’s and smokehouse bacon)
