Pro-Am Brew in West Seattle
Last Friday we brewed another installment of our Pro-Am series. These recipes are scaled-up versions of award-winning home brew batches that we serve at our two pubs and enter in the Great American Beer Festival (GABF) in Denver, CO.
This year we teamed up with Vashon Island home brewer Tim Heryford to make his Black Pepper Porter. West Seattle Lead Brewer, Dan Ashley, and Tim pulled off the brew yesterday. The beer will need to ferment, then we’ll “dry-peppercorn” the batch to boost its aroma, and age it a bit before releasing it to our patrons. Look for it on tap in mid-to-late August.
Here’s an on-the-job photo of Dan and Tim in our West Seattle brew house.
