Sunday School this week is bittersweet, as we'll be welcoming our friend Josh Smith to lead a guided tasting some of his Swan Song beers, the last barrels from the Atwood Ales cellar. Atwood has been one of our brewery besties since we arrived in Washington, and while Josh won't be a stranger, this may be one of your last chances to taste his beer. It's $25 for six or so beers and a good hang with a great guy. See you on Sunday!

Great stuff at The Great Northern this week! Thursday night, as always, is trivia with Amber! Friday is games night--come play cribbage or Battleship with us!

Sunday School this week is a very bittersweet tasting for us, as we'll have Josh Smith from Atwood Ales in house for a guided tasting of his final beers. We're lucky to have them (and him) but also super bummed that there won't be any more. If you feel the same way, we hope you'll join us.

Happy New Year! We've changed our hours a bit for winter, but we still hope you'll come and hang out with us!

❗ Beer Release ❗ "Defying all categorization, the base for this beer was a blend of native yeast barrels of varying ages in our cellar, which was then foudre-aged, dry hopped with locally grown Cascade and Crystal hops, refermented on Pinto Noir pomace and juice, blended together with a mix of one, two, and three year spontaneously fermented beers, and naturally fermented with local blackberry honey..." Available at both @gardenpathwa and @gpfgreatnorthern we can't wait to share the flavors with you! Our official release date is February 2nd, so in just over a week you'll be able to get this incredible creation. #burlington #skagitvalley #dtbham #washington #wabeer #newbeerrelease #thetranscendentalblur #comingsoon #beerrelease #craftbeer #local
