It was time for a vacation, which meant it was time for some new restaurants! Our destination cities were Seattle and San Francisco with a side of Sausalito. As you read the next series of posts, just remember Endless Eats is on a little field trip to Washington and Northern California.
Next, we decided to burn the calories off by walking about 100 feet to the market's local brewery to get some more beer at The Pike Brewery Company. I cannot believe this was my first time trying their beer. I must say I was pretty impressed. We ordered a sampler so we could try six of their beers.
Pike Naughty Nellie - Golden Ale (One of Dylan's favorites - a light beer with nice flavor and little bitterness)
Pike Pale Ale - Heirloom Amber
Pike IPA - Indian Pale Ale
Pike Kilt Lifter - Scotch Ale
Pike Tandem - Double Ale (This one was my favorite with flavors of coriander and sugar cane. So good!)
Pike XXXXX - Double Ale (If you like hops and stout beers, you will love this one - a little too bitter for me, but many love it)
We had a great time and I was excited to find out there are plenty of places in Portland to buy these beers.
Next time you are in Seattle, check out the brewery for yourself (they also have a happy hour!)

Stayed tuned for another post on Seattle eats...next is pizza!
this place is great.
ReplyDeleteThis place sounds great! I just wish it was closer to me! I have to driver very far to go and eat there. :(
ReplyDeleteWe were in Seattle for my husbands class reunion and ate at Elliott's Oyster House on Pier 56 because it used to be my husband favorite place. Then we ate at Duke's because my brother and sister in law said it was the best place. They both tied for best in my book, but I will have to tell my SIL about your suggestions since she can check them out anytime!
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't I go there last time I was in Seattle?? Next time for sure!
ReplyDeleteAgree with you - the market is such a great sight. Did you see the giant fish that "bites" you if you put your fingers near? What about the shoe museum... good memories. The seafood there is insanely big.
ReplyDeleteHave you been to the SauceBox in Seattle? The food there is amazing it's worth your while. Another place to try in the Northwest is Bill's Tavern in Cannon Beach, OR. The beer there is quite good and so are their fish and chips and fish tacos. And if you happen to travel farther to eastern Washington, 6 Degrees Restaurant in Kennewick, WA. They have some of the coolest martinis and serve mac 'n cheese balls which are delicious.
ReplyDelete@Rebekah I have not been to SauceBox in Seattle...there is one in Portland though. The same? I will definitely try 6 degrees next time I am there....I grew up in Kennewick, WA actually so I am in that area often. Never heard of it...but I was not much of a martini drinker as a child. :) Thanks for the recommendations!
