People all over the greater Tacoma area will get to raise their glass to support local business and craft beer in a week-long celebration: Tacoma Beer Week is back. This year’s event will look different due to the ongoing COVID-19 precautions. There are still events going on. They’re just smaller scale. Everything that’s going on is smaller scale, not the packed rooms we used to see. Masks, social distancing, and outdoor seating is also encouraged.

Peaks & Pints craft beer bar, bottle shop and restaurant has lined up four events this year, including a Tacoma Beer Week Opening Day celebration with Tacoma News Tribune Metro News columnist Matt Driscoll and his Blown Deadline IPA that he and the staffs and Peaks & Pints and CaskCades brewed at E9 Brewing in Tacoma’s History Brewery District.

Event Details

It’s with great pleasure that we announced the annual Pacific Northwest Cider Invitational will return to Peaks & Pints during the 2021 Tacoma Beer Week. When our annual cider festival returns to anchor Tacoma Beer Week Sunday, Aug. 15, it will brim with more than 20 craft ciders whose flavor profiles extend from barnyard funk to pleasantly astringent. Representing Washington, Oregon and Idaho, the Pacific Northwest Cider Invitational showcases regional variations and plucky endeavors.
