Peaks and Pints will host the Uinta Brewing’s Rotating Park Series Golden Ale No. 1: Yosemite release party at 6 p.m. Monday, Feb. 6. When national parks are mentioned what comes to mind? Mount Rainer, Olympic, or perhaps the Great Smokey Mountains? But what about Uinta? Yep, not a national park and not the noted national forest — Uinta Brewing Co. in Salt Lake City, Utah. We speak of the craft brewery founded in 1993 best known for the delicious pine and citrus forward Hop Nosh IPA. Uinta has introduced Golden Ale, a light bodied, slightly
When you drink local, you drink fresh — but you also support the local economy. We’ll break it down for you: When you drink a Wingman Brewers’ craft beers you’re not only showing some love for a local business, you’re supporting a business that’s outsourcing their graphic design to a local artist. Everyone benefits. Our beer sample flight centers on local breweries. Please stop by and enjoy Craft Beer Crosscut 2.4.17: A Flight of Tacoma. 7 Seas Water Chopper Gose 4.8% ABV This dry, moderately sour, and extremely refreshing beer is made in the gose tradition at 7 Seas’ Tacoma
Super Bowl Sunday is certainly a day about football. That much is for sure. But it’s almost as much about craft beer. While many will be doing their American duty and watching the game on Peaks and Pints’ 130-inch screen while enjoying our sandwiches, others will indulge in house parties. If you fall into the latter category, many new and restocked bottled and canned craft beers arrived at Peaks and Pints this week to pair with your friend’s bean dip. BALLAST POINT RED VELVET NITRO The deep red color comes from beets, which add a rich, earthy character that complements the

There’s a paradigm shift in the beer world. After work on Friday, the average beer mom or dad is buying fewer six-packs of Miller at Safeway. Instead, they’ll cruise by places like Peaks and Pints for a quick pint, grab a 64-ounce growler to go, and then cruise home and rejoin the family for dinner. That said, there’s still a large portion of the population that doesn’t get craft beer. The most common deterrent is the illusion that all craft beers are hop bombs served by beer snobs. Oh contraire. For our daily beer sample flight friendly Peaks and Pints
TUESDAY, JAN. 31 2017: And it was good … The Grand Cinema + Peaks and Pints = Heavenly CLEVER SPIRITUAL COMEDY Cheerily sacrilegious, the inventive comic fantasy The Brand New Testament by Belgian director Jaco Van Dormael is narrated by a 10-year-old girl in Brussels (Pili Groyne) who’s neglected by her drunken mother (Yolande Moreau) and beaten by her frustrated father (Benoît Poelvoorde). Imagining him as God and herself as Jesus’s kid sister, she vows revenge and hits the streets to recruit a homeless man as her Peter and various other lost souls as her disciples. Catch this wackiness at
Meet the American roughneck, Chinook. This hop is usually used for its bitterness but has lately gained popularity for the aromatics it imparts in many American craft beers across the style spectrum. The Chinook hop is a cross between the Petham Golding and USDA-selected male (#63012, if you want to be specific), and was first released from the breeding program in 1985. Primarily grown in the Yakima region of Washington state, this hop is primarily used for its high alpha acid content as a bittering hop. These days, however, late additions and even dry-hopping with Chinook is becoming more popular.
MONDAY, JAN. 30 2017: Blue Mouse Theatre + Peaks and Pints = Flight The Power MORE WIZARDS J.K. Rowling will always be aces in Peaks and Pints’ book. Got an entire generation interested in reading. Gave away so much of her money that she no longer qualifies as a billionaire. So yeah, she can milk the wizarding crap for the rest of her life as far as we’re concerned. Warner Bros. seems to agree, having allowed Rowling for the first time to adapt her own work in the form of Fantastic Beasts, a story that predates Harry Potter’s by some

Peaks and Pints has a proclivity toward lists and the ranking of favorites. High Fidelity inspires desert island-record discussions. March Madness is a drug. And when we were just Hills and Schooners, we’d sit cross-legged in the living room, surrounded by sorted mounds of Halloween candy and conduct elaborate trades and negotiations based on our arbitrarily prized possessions. The point being: we’re no different today. Building a desert island list is a delicate task. With records, you need to take into account all the different styles, eras, and at least one sentimental favorite. You probably want some reggae in there, being
Happy Sunday! Whew what a week, how did it go for you Peaks and Pints Pals? Judging by our bottle shop, taproom and eatery it looks as if everyone is finally getting over the flu.

Regional bragging rights. Office betting pools. Weekend afternoon boredom. These are all worthwhile reasons to be a sports fan. But for Peaks and Pints’ money, the best defense of sports’ spectators has to be the vicarious thrill that we get from seeing athletes do all the cool stuff we can’t do. So unless you already know how to dance atop a stack of chairs or juggle jars, desks, ladders, and bamboo with your feet, you’ll want to check out The Peking Acrobats in the Pantages Theater at 3 p.m. Unless you’re completely dead on the inside, there should still be
Sam Calagione started making beer in 1995 when he opened Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats in the beach community of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. It was the smallest commercial brewery in America at that time. Within a few successful years, the company activated a major expansion, switching from making very small, homebrew-style batches to industrial-sized sessions in a sizeable brew house. Dogfish Head expanded and moved to a 100,000 square foot facility in nearby Milton, DE in 2002. They’re one of the largest craft brewers in America but yet there may be no brewery today that exhibits such a dedication to

Our beer flight heads east for Craft Beer Crosscut 1.28.17: A Flight of East Coast. Founded in 1997, Brewery Ommegang has been bringing Belgium to America with resounding applause.

Peaks and Pints use to love Tuesdays. Sandwiched between the protracted psychotic episode of Monday and the soul-crushing tedium of Wednesday, Tuesday is a peanut-buttery buffer of soothingly mediocre experiences. Productivity is high, outlook positive and acid reflux pleasantly fruity. Well, not anymore. In some belated — and misguided — response to Thursday being the new Friday, Tuesday has become the new Wednesday … or Monday … or both. Want to schedule a 6 a.m. breakfast meeting? How’s Tuesday look for you? Family emergencies? Bad hair? Exhausting games of one-upmanship with the office alpha male? Ah, Tuesday, we see you
Remember when you knew how to relax? It was probably before you had an iPhone, before you had kids, before you had a job that demanded 70 hours a week — plus weekends.

So pawn the kids off on Grandma, put your phone down, and get ready to swallow one seriously giant chill pill. Step one: Deep breath, South Sound.

Celebrate Beer Can Appreciation Day at Peaks and Pints in Tacoma. Yes, it’s Beer Can Appreciation Day today, commemorating that storied day in 1935 when the world was introduced to a beautiful and paradigm-changing concept: canned beer. Krueger Brewing Company of Richmond, Virginia walked into a grocery store carrying a steel can that weighed in at almost 4 ounces and opened with a church key. Not long after, beer cans fell out of vogue. Not so anymore: today, the beer can industry is overflowing with smartly designed graphics and artwork on canned beer. Many believe that

Craft Beer Crosscut 1.23.17: A Flight of Scotch Ales Scottish style beers can be a malt lover’s dream beer, with its smooth sweetness and body. The epitome of malty, scotch ales are boiled twice as long as ordinary beer, caramelizing the sugars to build these deep flavors of maple and molasses. Recipes may include peat-smoked malt, which can lend smoky, earthy tones to the aroma and flavor. Scottish ales commonly fall into four general types: Light, Heavy, Export and the Scotch Ale. Historically these distinctions carried labels of the shilling currency, which reflected the price charged per barrel of beer

For single-minded devotion to quality, purity and tradition, the Trappist monks of Belgium are hard to match, especially when it comes to ale. It doesn’t take much imagination to get carried away picturing them at their work. Seated at their rough-hewn tables, clothed in their coarse robes, they spend hours in the serenity of silent prayer and study. Then the word goes out it’s time to brew the beer and like so many elves, off they go to perform their sacred chores. Unibroue founders André Dion and Serge Racine took beer brewing techniques used by said monks and brought them

In 2015, Oregon’s breweries crafted 1,700,000 barrels of beer. (A barrel is 248 pints.) Beer contributed $4.49 billion to the state’s economy and employs roughly 31,000 Oregonians directly and indirectly, from the guy who drives that beer truck all over Portland, to the woman working her family hop farm in the Willamette Valley, to the dude mushing thirsty peddlers around Bend on the Cycle Pub. But perhaps the snazziest stat is that of all the beer sold in state, 22 percent was made within its borders. In that same year, Oregon’s craft brewers sold 1.048 million barrels outside of Oregon,
THURSDAY JAN. 19 2017: Drink up South Sound … YEE-HAW Cowboy literature isn’t exactly an oxymoron, although it is a rare breed.

The holidays are intended to incite love, merriment and cheer. But with celebrations of Baby Jesus’ birth beginning months in advance, Peaks and Pints understands that the season’s overextension can instead provoke something else entirely — such as aggravation and a general sense of dread.
