Here are the 40 Craft Breweries and their 180 unique and tasty selections for the weekend:

509 Bierwerks-Wenatchee

1) Brew Ha Ha IPA (ABV 6.2% / IBU 80)

Brew Ha Ha IPA is a homage to a benchmark of the American IPA style. It’s brewed in a

traditional Northwest style; American base malt and crystal malt create the big body and

supporting grainy sweetness, while Jarrylo® and Mosaic® hops deliver pronounced tropical

citrus aroma and flavor. In the glass you get a pale amber color, hop intensity and malt.

Spicy stone fruit, tropical citrus and great malt backbone make this a well balanced IPA .

2) #14 Nut Brown (ABV 6.1% / IBU 32)

Styled after southern English brown ales, our Nut Brown is a great all-around beer. It’s mild

enough for light beer drinkers, but characterful enough for more experienced craft beer

lovers. The finished product exhibits a deep copper color, fruit/caramel flavor and aroma

with toasty, chocolatey notes and a hint of coffee.

3) 509 Fest Bier (ABV 6.0% / IBU 22)

Moderately high malt flavor presenting soft sweetness basic to Pilsner malt with an added

hint of light toast. Hop bitterness brings slight balancing to the malt, while flavor is spicy, and

herbal. Clean lager character.

Our once a year fresh (wet) hop beer brewed within hours of being picked in Lake Chelan.

herbal. Good strong bitterness and balanced with a Carmel malt finish.

landscape. To celebrate, we created our IPA Rotator Series, a collection of hop-packed beers,

each representing a unique characteristic of life in Yakima's hop country.

2) Dormancy Breakfast Stout (ABV 6.8% / IBU 50)

Who says Bale Breaker only does hoppy? Conditioned on locally-roasted coffee

A variation on our rich and malty ESB, this fresh-hopped IPA includes literal buckets of our

house-grown Cascade hops! The overwhelming citrus aroma and flavor is kept in check,

however, by the rich malt flavor. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

2) Poirot, Belgian Strong Dark (ABV 10.8% / IBU 35)

This dark and mysterious twist on the classic Belgian style is an adventure! It is a rich golden

brown, and your nose is immediately treated to a complex aroma of spices, banana, fig, and

sweetness. Slightly drier than our other beers, the flavor still has a gentle maltiness to

compliment the caramelized fruit and savory spice. The heat from the ethanol is more

pronounced here, as you would expect from the weighty 10.8% ABV inside!

3) Health Potion, Strawberry Hibiscus Hard Cider (ABV 6.4%)

Every health potion, from every video game or role-playing game you have ever played, right

in your glass! This amazing mix of strawberry and hibiscus is a bright and fruity treat,

4) Old Books, English Barleywine, (SAT) (ABV 12% / IBU 49)

This beer takes you back to that amazing smell of an old book tucked in the corner of an

antique bookstore. Made in the English style, which highlights the rich malt character instead

of hops, this beautiful golden ale includes notes of caramel and fresh-baked bread, rounded

by subtle hints of vanilla. This is truly a stage for the wonderful malts within to shine!

Leavenworth was once a booming logging town doing things the old school way. Then

chainsaws came around and changed the game forever. Similarly, a new wave of hops have

come about and changed the brewing game. We’ve embraced this new hop revolution and

as mild as a brown ale. Brown porters typically have more complex caramel flavors and less

of a roasted flavor than robust porters. It has a medium body and is well balanced between

the malt flavor and hop bitterness. A very drinkable well balanced dark ale without the roast

barley flavor of stout.

The newest IPA from No-Li Brewhouse. Jet Juiced IPA, available in six-pack cans and draft,

An easy-drinking lager made with locally grown and malted Baronesse barley and Rye. Its

wonderful golden color with a little rye haze brings forth its light spicy character from the

malts. Light enough to drink all day but flavorful enough to know you aren't drinking a rice

beer! Don't expect bitterness from this one.

3) Blackberry Pucker (ABV 4.6%)

Taking our famous sour beer base and adding Blackberrys to it seemed like a great idea and it

to a clean dry finish.

and refreshing and not overly spiced or sweet.

malty sweetness to compliment the hop bitterness, flavor and aroma.

 

Stoup Brewing–Seattle

1) Citra IPA (ABV 5.90% / IBU 50)

We like to call this one Sunshine In a Glass … or Sunshine In Your Belly because it won’t stay

in that glass long. Our Citra® IPA is designed to be light and bright in both color and body.

Your first sniff will elicit images of tropical fruit and citrus thanks to a healthy dose of Citra®

hops. Enjoy a pint of this and you might just find yourself gazing skyward, pondering how in

the heck sunshine made its way into your glass. AWARDS: Silver Medal- SIP NW Best of the

NW, 2015 Silver Medal-WA Beer Awards

2) Sandals & Flannels Hazy IPA (ABV 6.0% / IBU 58)

Call us old-fashioned or retro or...old, but sometimes we long for the days of yesteryear. The

days when Seattle was rainy and grungy and kind of greasy. When you didn't have to iron

your flannel shirts and Birkenstocks were a fashion statement (only if they were really smelly

and worn within a millimeter of the asphalt). In an effort to celebrate those angst filled days,

we brewed this hazy IPA (like the skies back then, get it?). Unfortunately, due to our naturally

sunny dispositions and close proximity to so many hopeful millennials, we couldn't help but

pack it with the brightest, citrusiest, peachiest, passionfruitiest hops we could find - Citra®,

Mosaic and Galaxy. So, celebrate those glory days with Sandals & Flannels IPA, but also

celebrate the new you that showers daily and brushes your hair.

3) Robust Porter (ABV 6.20% / IBU 45)

Rich in color and character, our robust porter conjures up memories of decadent chocolate

treats dipped in coffee. Hints of dark chocolate, roasted coffee and light malty sweetness are

the result of a complex malt profile including chocolate malt, roasted wheat and roasted rye.
