Join us in the tasting room for fresh Port / Lost Abbey beers and whole lot of really creative pumpkin carving as we get ready to ward off the evil spritis on All Hallows Eve Monday. A family-friendly occassion, you can bring your own pumpkin or pick one up at the brewery!

The carving starts at 5pm – pumpkins are free, but in limited supply, so get there early if you’re feeling crafty with the squash. Beers are all our regular (very reasonable) prices.

Video: The Making of High Tide IPA

Recently we shared photos of Tomme’s trip to the Yakima Valley to harvest the fresh hops that go into our High Tide fresh-hopped IPA. Well, the beer has now made it to draft and bottle and is hitting store shelves and taps throughout our distribution network. In honor of the 2011 High Tide we created a short video that takes you through the making of this delicious, fresh hop bomb. Enjoy!
