Re: Seattle

I just visited recently. We went to Freemont Brewing, Hales Ales, and Maritime Pacific Brewing Company, and we enjoyed them all. They were also fairly close to one another so we just did a brewery crawl.

Be sure to hit up your local Safeway too, they had a good selection of local beers.
