Bakery Nouveau Makes a Sublime Splash on Capitol Hill
Expect the same West Seattle-style long lines at BN's new Capitol Hill locale
The line has been out the door at pastry chef William Leaman’s West Seattle Bakery Nouveau ever since it opened in 2006, and when the Capitol Hill locale debuted in the spring in a long-deserted space, it didn’t take long for lines to snake out the door there, too. But those queues aren’t for the…

Trend Watch: Sour Beers
Fleeting, unpredictable and usually only available at breweries, sour beers are tarted up for imbibi
In beer lingo, the word “sour” refers to a range of beers that are intentionally acidic, tart and, well, sour. Sour beer is often associated with Belgian breweries, where monks use techniques predating the Gutenberg press to create it, but a growing number of local breweries now dabble in this mysterious craft. Brewers add crazy…
Trend Watch: Barrel-Aged Beers
Once reserved for whiskey and wine aging, the wood-aged treatment is now being applied to beer
