Do you like drinking winter beers, visiting awesome beer bars, skiing and winning free things? The 4th Annual 12 Beers of Christmas Tour has arrived, and with the right luck you could win a ski weekend trip for four to Stevens Pass with lodging in Leavenworth.

The idea is simple. There are 12 select winter beers pouring at 4 of Seattle’s best places to drink beer (details below). Stop by any of the locations to get a punch card and start your mission. Get it ticked off for all 3 beers offered at each place and you can then turn it in at any of the 4 locations before 4pm on December 12 in order to qualify for the grand prize raffle. The event kicked off yesterday, so don’t waste any time. Get out there and drink!

Here are all of the details:

We’re pleased to be kicking off another year of this Seattle craft beer tradition on Sunday December 1^st at these FOUR locations:

Naked City Brewery & Taproom in Greenwood – featuring winter brews from Victory Brewing (Downingtown, PA), Schooner Exact (Seattle, WA) and Silver City (Bremerton, WA)

Beveridge Place Pub in West Seattle – featuring winter brews from Dick’s Brewing (Centralia, WA), Diamond Knot Craft Brewing (Mukilteo, WA) and Oakshire Brewing Co (Eugene, OR)

The Pine Box on Capitol Hill – featuring winter beer from Fremont Brewing (Seattle, WA), 21^st Amendment Brewery (San Francisco, CA) and Laurelwood Brewpub (Portland, OR)

The Beer Authority in Lake City – featuring the winter brews from Eel River Brewing (Fortuna, CA), Big Sky Brewery (Missoula, MT), and No-Li Brewhouse (Spokane, WA).

 

The format follows last year’s, as each location will feature all three of their chosen brews on tap for the duration of the tour, December 1^st through 12^th.  Patrons can pick up their official 12 Beers punch card (free of charge) at any of the four locations at any time, and start the tour.  Upon completion of all 12 Beers, participants simply turn the completed punch card in at any of the four locations BEFORE 4:00pm on December 12^th.   All completed punch cards will be collected at this time, and taken to the Pine Box for the grand finale party and raffle beginning at roughly 7:00pm on December 12th.

The grand prize once again is a two-night stay for four adults in a luxurious two bedroom condo in the Leavenworth village, with lift tickets for nearby Stevens Pass, and some great craft beer to enjoy!  Additional brewery-related prizes will be raffled off as well, andwinners MUST BE PRESENT to accept their prize!
