The wait is over! It is with great pleasure that we announce the debut of our half-liter bottles at retailers throughout Western and Southwestern Washington. Our core brands – Kölsch, Vaporizer Dry-Hopped Pale Ale, India Red Ale (IRA) and Hop Lava Northwest IPA – will be on shelves and available for purchase immediately, with seasonals and other specialties to follow.

As for returns, it’s different from Oregon due to the lack of a deposit. We will be soliciting finer retailers to serve as drop-off stations for the empties, on a volunteer basis. Our good friends at Bottleworks in Wallingford are on board as our first partner. Thanks guys! Looking forward to adding more soon.
