Pike Brewing just announced that it is opening a new beer garden in the brewery, off of Post Alley.
They also have some other news to share. Here’s the info straight from the source:
Pike Opens Summer Brewery Beer Garden
This summer, we’re opening the brewery doors to Post Alley and inviting guests to sit and sip among the tanks and kegs in our first ever Brewery Beer Garden! In addition to regular service at The Pike Pub and Tankard & Tun, guests can now enjoy a beer right inside the production brewery on Saturdays and Sundays through Labor Day weekend.
“We want to offer visitors a new way to experience Pike beer and the brewery itself,” says Gary Szeredy, General Manager of The Pike Pub, “While guests visiting each floor of our restaurants can view aspects of Pike’s gravity-flow brew system, opening up the brewery lets them see firsthand where the process begins.”
Featuring four beer taps and snackable landjager from Pike Place Market neighbors Bavarian Meats, the Brewery Beer Garden will be open noon to 6pm on August 11 & 12; August 18 & 19; August 25 & 26; and September 1 & 2.
Visitors looking for an additional guided brewery tour experience are encouraged to book online.

New Beer Release: Citrus Summer Ale

New Beer Release: Hopsie
Named after a character in the 1941 screwball comedy The Lady Eve, Hopsie is a collaboration pale ale brewed with Naked City Brewery to commemorate their 10th year anniversary! A lighter take on the classic pale ale style, this beer features a complex yet crisp palate. Hopsie is exclusively available on draft at Naked City Brewery’s Greenwood Seattle and Camano Island locations, and Pike Brewing Company’s The Pike Pub and Tankard & Tun in downtown Seattle.
