Dhaulagiri I is the tallest peak in the Dhaulagiri mountain range in Nepal, the seventh highest mountain in the world, standing at 26,795 feet (8,167 m) above sea level. The mountain’s name comes from the Sanskrit words dhawala (white) and giri (mountain). The mountain’s steep sides and cold climate made climbing difficult until May 13, 1960, when a Swiss-Austrian-Nepali expedition led by Max Eiselin first reached the summit. On this date in history, in 1985, Polish climbers Jerzy Kukuczka and Andrzej Czok became the first to climb Dhaulagiri I in the winter without supplemental oxygen. The Polish climbers summited via
In 2012, Civil Rights artist Paul Rucker installed his “Human Rights Legacy” benches at People’s Park in Tacoma’s Hilltop Neighborhood, around the corner from this London plane tree. Tacoma Silent Trees: Breaking silence near People’s Park “I heard you mention ‘London plane’ on your device near the Horse Chestnut tree,” said the London plane tree from across the street near the Mi Centro non-profit on Hilltop Tacoma. “The photo you snapped is a large, deciduous, synoecious tree. I’m over here just being a hybrid of Platanus orientalis and Platanus occidentalis — plain and simple,” added the
In 2009, Fort George Brewery bought almost the entire city block in Astoria, including the Lovell Building, where they installed a 20-barrel commercial brewhouse — “Little Miss Texas” — followed by a neighboring $12.5 million production facility. In March 2021, Fort George shifted its major production to a new waterfront location along the Columbia River just east of the Astoria-Megler Bridge. Inside the new facility, Fort George installed a refurbished three-vessel, 60-barrel “Kingpin” brewhouse that was used for years by Bridgeport Brewing out of Portland, Oregon. They added two new 250-barrel fermenters and four 170-barrel lagering tanks and moved almost

Today is Baltic Porter Day, an event started by the Polish brewer and porter fan Marcin Chmielarz. In 1977, beer writer Michael Jackson penned the existence of porter brewing in Poland in his World Guide to Beer. Jackson is credited with inventing the expression, “Baltic porter,” the name the style is now known, even in Poland. The Baltic porter is a traditional English style, developed by the British in the 1800s for export to their buddies in the Russian Court. The Baltic porter is an interesting breed because while it’s a porter in name and flavor, it’s not an ale.

Local fans of pounding drum-and-bugle corps — those young marching musician-athlete ensembles famous for their willingness to march for hours in full band gear (and a good layer of sweat) under the blazing sun — have found their pot o’ gold, thanks to Tacoma Arts Live. It’s time for a rhythm revolution with The Pack Drumline. From humble beginnings as an afterschool program in Chicago, teaching percussion and dance to at-risk youth, this dynamic performance group brings their electric rhythms and high-energy beats to the Pantages Theater in a show that is anything but basic.

Scientist Mark Bjornstad, builder Darin Montplaisir, businessperson Jesse Feigum, and engineer Mason Montplaisir first dreamed of starting a brewery. Through dumb luck, hard work, and amazing friends they eventually got the opportunity to resurrect this building and bring this dream to life in September 2014. Brewhalla is the home of Viking-themed Drekker Brewing and it’s become so much more than a brewery and taproom. It is made up of a food market filled with Fargo, North Dakota’s best and most creative restaurants, shops, and makers, a bumping event center to throw killer parties, and a hotel like no other to
Beer holds a significant place in society, transcending mere refreshment. It has deep cultural, social, and historical roots have shaped communities and traditions worldwide. For more than 1000 years, beer has been associated as a symbol of social bonding, celebration, relaxation, or rebellion, depending on the context and perspective. It is considered one of the defining drinks in history, with the first known beer dating back to almost the 5th millennium BC, making beer one of the oldest drinks in the world. The brewing process as we know it was perfected by monks in Western Europe, taking up the Germanic

Raised in Puyallup, Colin Lenfesty was a longtime homebrewer who worked his way into the Schooner EXACT Brewing team where he met sales guy Mike Murphy. In 2014, the two opened Holy Mountain Brewing in Seattle’s Interbay neighborhood. Their oak-influenced and mixed fermentation beers, as well as hop-forward ales and lagers, instantly gained crowds and awards. During the pandemic, Murphy left Holy Mountain and the industry to open Outer Dark Coffee in Tacoma leaving Lenfesty to forge ahead. Forklift failures, whiskey wrestling, fly fishing and the quickest and most delicious entry into craft beer fame — hear how Lenfesty built
The Garry oak in Oak Tree Park in South Tacoma witnessed Charles Wilkes be a dick to his sailors. Tacoma Silent Trees: Breaking silence at Oak Tree Park “I know who are,” replied the Garry oak tree commanding Oak Tree Park in South Tacoma. “You were the talk of the Tacoma tree world several years ago when you ran around snapping photos of us while yapping about something called Kulshan Tree-dimensional. “Your write-up on the Garry oak at Oakbrook Plaza was pretty decent.” Peaks & Pints first partnered with Tacoma Tree Foundation, of TTF, in the
In 1993, Adam Avery launches his Avery Brewing Company in a garage off an alley in Boulder, making him one of the pioneers of Colorado’s craft beer scene. At first, consumers were apprehensive when it came to the new tastes Avery introduced to the market place. In 1996, Avery was among the first breweries in Colorado to offer an IPA. Many of the deliveries were returned because the beer tasted too bitter. Pushing the limits in the brewhouse, they began experimenting with barrel aging in 2003 and barrel-aged fanatics throughout the nation seek the results out. Many of the big

Whether you’re a skim, two percent, or whole milk drinker, Jan. 11 is a day to celebrate anything and everything milk. It’s National Milk Day and, of course, Peaks & Pints celebrates with a flight of milk stouts, which we call Peaks and Pints Beer Flight: Milk Stout. Milk stouts originated in Europe in the 1800s. The style emphasizes a malty sweetness with hints of chocolate and caramel. They are sometimes called cream stouts or sweet stouts. Brewers intensified the dark, chocolaty malt body with lactose, the sugar in cow’s milk, hence why they’re more often called milk stouts. Brewer’s

Loowit Silent Trees IPA inspires Tacoma Tree stories Trees in Tacoma know a thing or two because they have seen a thing or two. They have overseen the signing of treaties, heard whispered declarations of love, and even saw the 1888 construction of Point Defiance Park — we’re looking at you Mountaineer tree! Tacoma trees possess much knowledge and wisdom simply because
The porter style originated in England as the popular preference of the porters who worked in the shipyards. The style, an ale, is commonly dated to the mid-to-early 1700s. Porter is often confused with stout, which is also an ale, because of its similarly dark appearance. But porters can range from brown to deep black, a result of the chocolate or smoked brown malts that are used in brewing. Hints of roast can be found in some porters, but generally, hoppiness is moderate. In the U.S. the porter style nearly vanished when, after Prohibition, light-bodied lagers grew popular. Homebrewers and

Matt Swihart and Charlie Devereaux crossed paths while working at Full Sail Brewing in Hood River, Oregon. In February 2006, Swihart caught glimpse of a “For Lease” sign in one of the few light-industrial-zoned storefronts in downtown Hood River. St. Patrick’s Day 2007, Swihart and Devereaux opened Double Mountain Brewery & Taproom in said spot, named after Swihart’s orchard, Double Mountain Orchards — where one can look in one direction and see Mt. Adams and then look in the other direction and see Mt. Hood. With a mash tun paddle and one hand and a banjo in the other, Swihart
In the rolling farmland of Chimacum Valley along a salmon stream just south of Port Townsend, the Finnriver Farm & Cidery orchards stretch across 80 acres using more than 20 different varieties of apple tree. Their mission is to reconnect people to the land that sustains us and to grow community. They seek to create deep-rooted and fruitful connections at their farm-based taproom and rural gathering space. Finnriver’s farm and orchard is Certified Organic and Salmon Safe, and the company is a Certified B Corporation, seeking to make business a force for good.

Born in Massachusetts and raised in Connecticut, New Englander Steve Luke spent the summer of 2005 between his junior and senior year at Colby College in Maine sweeping floors and making boxes at Allagash Brewing Company. Upon graduating with a degree in sociology and economics, Luke accepted a job washing kegs at Captain Lawrence Brewing Company in the Hudson Valley. He then moved to Boston to work in the marketing department at Harpoon Brewery. After graduation, Luke returned to Allagash as a brewer, and later became head brewer of Cambridge House Brewpub in Connecticut, where he had freedom to play
The last of your family finally left your house. It was a lot over the holidays. You can put half your life’s savings into therapy —good therapy, effective therapy — and the first day of your holiday family reunion, you still become hopelessly enmeshed in the same old crazy dynamics. Your assertiveness training goes out the window the minute your sister begins her traditional temper tantrum. A mere sigh from your grandmother triggers an attack of codependency so severe you end up giving her your house. For many people, family get-togethers require strategies for staying out of such sticky situations.

When you think of adventures in California, Delahunt doesn’t come to mind. Delahunt doesn’t scream kayaking, hiking, climbing, surfing or flying. In 2020, when Todd Delahunt launched Delahunt Brewing Company with an unyielding focus on quality in two locations — San Clemente headquarters and later Dana Point — he was more concerned with building a brewery and surviving the COVID-19 than hiking the Coastal Trail or biking Orange County. Since purchasing Delahunt in August 2023, Head Brewer Chris Linn and his six ownership partners have gradually acclimated to their new venture while roaming Southern California, like they do. They renamed

Nothing makes Peaks & Pints feel cozier than the smell of pancakes in the morning or relaxing at home with the fluffiest slippers and a hot mug of coffee in hand. This satisfaction we experience during mornings is inextricably linked to food, specifically breakfast or everyone’s favorite … breakfast beer. Breweries countrywide have turned to the day’s first meal for inspiration, tossing oats, coffee, maple syrup, milk sugar, tea, and even cinnamon rolls into the brew kettle, devising brews fit for at the breakfast table. We’re not saying not saying you should replace your morning cup of joe with beer
In the world history of beer, pilsners are relatively recent. Thanks to the citizens of Pilsen, Bohemia (Bohemia became part of Czechoslovakia Oct. 28, 1918; Czechoslovakia peacefully split into the Czech Republic and Slovakia Jan. 1, 1993), who in 1838 dumped 36 barrels of beer in the main square in protest of poor quality of beer. The Burghers of Pilsen were a group of citizens in who established the Burghers’ Brewery in 1842 to produce a consistent quality beer. Burghers sent spies into Bavaria and then brought back their own Bavarian brewer Josef Groll. On Oct. 5 1842, eons before
Back in the day when a phone call cost 25 cents and we had to walk seven miles through the snow just to get a replacement ribbon for our typewriters — the new year meant heading to the office-supply store to buy a new planner for the upcoming months. These days, most people keep their calendars online so that their phones can automatically remind them of what’s going on that day. But no matter how you keep your schedule, map out your upcoming special events on your calendar while enjoying Peaks and Pints 2024 New Year’s Eve Beer Flight. What
Back in the day, George Washington’s troops received rations of it. John Adams reportedly drank a tankard of it for breakfast each morning. Cider apples and their fermented juice were prevalent on American homesteads. Then Americans departed farms for cities, German immigrants introduced beer culture and ultimately Prohibition took a collective axe to cider orchards across the country. It’s not surprising that craft cider has taken root in Washington state — a region of wine and craft beer enthusiasts. Washington is the second largest wine producer and has the third highest number of craft breweries in the country. But when
Cold rain makes for fine opportunities to sip bold winter beers, bursting with spices, roasted malts and complex flavors. There’s a great scene in the 2007 documentary American Brew where late British author Michael Jackson (a.k.a. the Beer Hunter) describes a perfect scenario for sipping a dark ale. He’s in a pub, holding a full pint of heavy ale. “This would be even better on a cold night,” he says, “just as the rain is hammering against your window panes, and you’re in a nice, comfortable leather chair, and your wife’s gone to bed, and you’ve a got a bit

Happy National Chocolates Candy Day! Yes, it’s a thing. From conversations with friends, family, and customers around the Peaks & Pints cooler, it seems like giving your significant other a box of chocolates on Valentine’s Day has become horribly tacky and passé. What about today? Does a non-Valentine’s Day box of chocolates represent custom, convention and, therefore, cliché? Will you be accused of not putting any thought into the matter? Peaks & Pints wishes buying someone a box of chocolates didn’t automatically peg you as an uncreative loser with no taste. The chocolate in some of those boxes ain’t half

Belgian strong ales malty character can be rich and sweet, with complexity in flavors that include roastedness and mild hoppy bitterness. They are commonly brewed with candi sugar, which can add to the style’s alcoholic strength, which ranges from 7 percent to 11 percent ABV. We also include several American strong ales in today’s flight, which are sometimes referred to as old ales, stock ales or winter
In 2016, three neighbors opened Great Notion Brewing in Northeast Portland and opened the city’s eyes. Businessman Paul Reiter convinced his homebrewing neighbors James Dugan and Andy Miller to take their skills pro and basically freaked out the city known as Beervana with their New England-style IPAs and boundary-pushing culinary-style beers. The awards followed: World Beer Cup, GABF, Best of Craft Beer Awards, and Oregon Beer Awards, as well as the 2018 #1 IPA in America from Paste Magazine, Ripe IPA. Great Notion was the first Portland brewery to become known for hazies, and the controversial style, and traditionalists hated
