{ Redhook Brewery }

Yesterday was a great day!

Justin and I were lucky enough to have the day off and sunshine.

After a few hours of busy work we headed out to the Redhook Brewery in Woodinville.

Sadly, this was my first time. You know how it is, when something is in your backyard but you never go/see it.

This was one of those days I could cross off a to-do in your own neck of the woods (well, kinda).

We didn't go with any other intentions but eating to be honest.

But of course we had to do the tour after hearing it was only a dollar and it came with a free glass and lots of beer!

We also were drawn to the familiar feeling of a brewery tour, since our last was at Heineken in Amsterdam =).

It wasn't as intense at the Heineken tour, but the guide was funny and the history a little familiar.
The above picture is of the original Redhook brewery in Ballard, right on Leary below the bridge =).
They later moved from Ballard to Fremont,
and then out to Woodinville where they built the monstrosity of a brewery (or otherwise the Redhook campus).

We had some good laughs and lots of beer.
So much beer that I completely forgot to take pics of our yummy food.
Blackened salmon burger and pulled pork, yuummm!
I was in a great mood to say the least.
Afterwords we stopped for some fabulous home-made ice cream =)
So guilty. Vanilla cherry and the classic choco-chip mint.
