Schooner EXACT Ship Wheel of Fortune

They say that in life, you have to risk it all to get it all. During Ship Wheel of Fortune, you have to spin it to win it all. Now, people are going to get to experience the thrill of the wheel when Schooner EXACT Brewing Company brings its Ship Wheel of Fortune to Peaks and Pints bottle shop, taproom and restaurant in Tacoma’s Proctor District Thursday, Sept. 28.

“Since its inception in 2007, the Ship Wheel of Fortune has logged more than 350,000 miles and has visited more than 300 cities,” Schooner EXACT Sales Executive Jon Ross didn’t say at all. “More than one million Ship Wheel of Fortune fans have spun the Wheel to win prizes,” he didn’t say again.

The Ship Wheel of Fortune will be one of the highlights when Peaks and Pints calls to order its Lodge Meeting Sept. 28 with the South Seattle brewery as its special guest. Schooner EXACT Fresh Hop IPA, Grinderface barleywine, Whiskey Dick Cantwell pumpkin beer and King Street Brown will flow from our Western red cedar tap log as screams of joy burst around the Ship Wheel of Fortune.

Schooner Exact Brewing was born in 2007 as a part time business working out of an Active Space unit in West Seattle, brewing two kegs at a time in the evenings and on weekends, supplying beer to just a couple of accounts in Seattle. Three years later Matt McClung and his wife, Heather, left their teaching jobs to become a full-time brewery. Today, it’s an award-winning brewery in Seattle’s SoDo District with a brewpub and, of course, the Ship Wheel of Fortune.

“The Ship Wheel of Fortune is our own field of dreams,” Ross, again, didn’t say. “If we spin it, they will come, and we expect a lot of people to come to Peaks and Pints on September 28.”
