Open House events around Washington this Saturday

 

This Saturday, February 24th is Washington Beer Day, a day when the state’s breweries open their doors and invite the public in for special events, brewery tours, seasonal beer releases, barrel tastings, and more. Last week the Governor signed a proclamation declaring February 24th Washington Beer Day, a day to celebrate the states vibrant beer and brewing culture. Until then, it was simply known as Washington Beer Open House. I suppose that’s really what it is. Below I share just a bit of information about what’s happening at some breweries.

Mine is NOT A COMPREHENSIVE  LIST and is only offered as an example of what some breweries are doing. Look at the master list of breweries below to get an idea about what each brewery is doing. Also, check with the brewery itself.

Atwood Ales in Blaine – A rare tour of this real real farm house brewery. Because it is a production-only brewery, on a real family farm, this is a rare opportunity to see behind the scenes of their small, unique operation. Tours are available at 12pm, 2pm and 4pm, all you have to do is register for your preferred time. Space is limited to 20 people per tour, due to parking and brewery space constraints. As part of the tour, free beer samples available along with bottles and shirts for sale. More info and registration here.

SnoTown Brewing in Snohomish – “We have something special planned for this years Wa Beer Open House. Last two years we have collaborated with different local breweries on some brews to be served at each brewery. This year will be very different and very unique. We have reached out to 5 different breweries that have all closed down with in the past year or so. These five brewers/owners are bringing a favorite recipe to be brewed with SnoTown head brewer Frank at SnoTown Brewery. We are calling this: ALL-STAR RESURRECTION BREW PROJECT. All (or most) of the 6 brewers will be in house to answer any questions about the beers.” More details at  https://www.facebook.com/events/154738568650398/
