The Masonry to Celebrate 2nd Anniversary This Saturday With Special Lineup of Beers

July 28th, 2015 · No Comments · Events, Washington Breweries

The Masonry, the cozy beer bar and restaurant located in lower Queen Anne, has become one of my favorite places in Seattle to grab a beer. The owners know their beer and are fans of styles that get my attention. Stop by to check out the taplist any day of the week, and you are likely to find sours/wild ales, flavorful but clean IPAs, barrel-aged specialties and crisp lagers to choose from. The meatballs are also one of the best food items you’ll find on any menu in Seattle (make sure to get an order of house-made focaccia to soak up the sauce). The kitchen staff also knows how to put together some fantastic beer dinners. I’ve been to three of them in the past year, and it is impressive what they put out with such a small kitchen that has limited equipment.

The Masonry crew will be celebrating their 2nd anniversary this Saturday by filling their taps with a bunch of specialty beers, including an anniversary beer called “Fellowcraft” from their friends at Holy Mountain Brewing:

Fellowcraft was brewed in April, the base beer is a light pale ale hopped heavily with Amarillo. It was transferred to an oak puncheon and aged with a mixed brettanomyces culture for 3 months before being dry hopped in the barrel. Fellowcraft will be available only on draught at both The Masonry and the Holy Mountain taproom while the limited supply lasts.

The party will be from open to close (11:30am to Midnight) this Saturday, August 1. In the theme of their beer and music geekiness that they get to express at the pub on a daily basis, they’ll have some old-school video games going for tournaments, including Mario Kart, Ken Griffey Baseball, NHL 94 and Tecmo Bowl (I call that I’m the Bears).

Holy Mountain Fellowcraft (our 2nd Anniversary Beer)
