Step inside the Tacoma Armory tonight for Tacoma Arts Live’s “Live at the Eleanor” show, and let Angie Lynn and Walker Sherman melt your beautifully bruised little heart with harmony, soul, and songs soaked in truth. In honor of their magnetic collaboration—a LGBTQ+ woman and a straight man singing from the same scarred hymn book—we present Peaks & Pints Duets & Drafts Flight, a five-part symphony of beers born from the sacred act of brewing together. These aren’t just beers—they’re love letters written in hops and yeast, the delicious proof that when creative minds collide, flavor gets louder, weirder, and infinitely more alive. Collaboration beers don’t just strengthen the craft—they fortify an industry built on wild trust, borrowed tanks, secret recipes, and mutual madness, all while fueling innovation and supporting causes that actually matter (yes, even the bees). So, before or after the concert, stop by Peaks & Pints for Duets & Drafts, sip slowly, lean in, and remember: the best things—like music, beer, and revolutions—are always better when made together.
Peaks & Pints Duets & Drafts Flight
Everybody’s So Goodman
4.9% ABV
And then there’s Sol Goodman—a name so smirkingly slick it practically demands a linen suit and a sun-drenched porch. Brewed in delicious cahoots between Everybody’s Brewing and Brothers Cascadia Brewing, this Mexican-style lager is your legal loophole for absolute refreshment—light as an exhale, crisp as a courtroom quip, and smoother than a well-rehearsed alibi. It dances across your palate like a closing argument wrapped in lime and love, offering a perfect pause between the heavier hitters in this collaborative beer flight symphony. In the church of Duets & Drafts, Sol Goodman is the bright, unapologetic gospel.
Cloudburst Pure Possibility
6.4% ABV
Cloudburst Brewing’s Pure Possibility doesn’t merely glisten in your taster glass—it kicks down the door with citrus swagger and unapologetic pride, drenched in tangerine dreams, apricot flash, and the kind of honeydew hug that makes you believe in redemption-by-hop. Brewed with the pulse of Citra, Cascade, and Idaho 7, this West Coast IPA is a technicolor love letter to queer joy and righteous rebellion, with 10% of tasting-room sales marching straight into the hands of the Trans Women of Color Solidarity Network. It’s not just a beer—it’s an anthem in a pint, a protest with a heady bouquet, a reminder that the most powerful collaborations happen when you amplify the voices the world tries to silence. Pure Possibility is what happens when flavor becomes a fist raised skyward.
Fast Fashion Crosstown Classic
6.3% ABV
Crosstown Classic is what happens when two titans of Seattle’s hop‑soaked underworld—Fast Fashion and Cloudburst—slip on matching satin jackets and decide to drop a mixtape made entirely of lupulin and swagger. Brewed with the sultry MJF hop blend (Citra, El Dorado, Mosaic, and the elusive Elani), this West Coast IPA shimmers like marigold on a midsummer outfield and tastes like a grapefruit had a steamy backstage fling with a piña colada. It’s dry, it’s dank, it’s tropical foreplay followed by a spicy little slap of pine resin goodbye. Crosstown Classic doesn’t care who wins the game—it just wants the crowd roaring and the brewers high-fiving like it’s the bottom of the ninth and everything smells like citrus glory.
Loowit Brewing Silent Trees
6.6% ABV
Loowit Brewing’s Silent Trees doesn’t shout—it hums, deep and resonant, like the memory of wind through old-growth pines or the hushed awe after a soul-cracking harmony. Brewed in collaboration with Peaks & Pints and the Tacoma Tree Foundation, this IPA isn’t just a beer—it’s a reverent nod to Garry oaks, Mount St. Helens, and the quiet resilience of things rooted deeply. Simcoe, Columbus, and Chinook hops bend the air with notes of pine and citrus, like the bright edge of a chorus you didn’t know you needed. Silent Trees is the kind of West Coast IPA that wears its heart in the canopy, and in the world of Duets & Drafts, it sings backup vocals straight to your bloodstream.
Black Plague Ultraviolet
7.3% ABV
Ultraviolet is what happens when Black Plague Brewing and Bottle Logic Brewing get cosmic, lock eyes across a mash tun, and decide the West Coast IPA needs to glow harder. This stunner burns with papaya heat and grapefruit glare, flashing apricot-laced pine and that dank resinous hum that lingers like feedback after a righteous solo. Brewed on a base of 2-row and white wheat, it’s clean and punchy—a laser beam of citrus and rebellion wrapped in ultraviolet charisma. It doesn’t whisper. It radiates. And in the shimmering chorus of Duets & Drafts, Ultraviolet is the guitar riff that makes the whole room lean forward and grin.
