Livers Rejoice, Maritime Pacific's Jolly Roger Taproom Is back!
Between the taproom's swelling attendance and higher demand for their beer in kegs and bottles, something had to be done. Several months ago Maritime owners George and Jane Hancock purchased larger digs up the street. Unfortunately, what was supposed to be an orchestrated transfer of the brewery and restaurant went to hell quickly. This weekend, after a long, grueling wait, they are again open for business.
Happy Beer Hour, Part Five
Spur, Belltown (Sun-Thurs 5-7 p.m. / 11:30 p.m.-1:30 a.m.) An unassuming looking place that has been nationally recognized for their creative and schizophrenic food menu, inspired by local farmers, butchers, and fisherman. From $3.50 for craft beer to their late night (11:30-1:30) $5 Rainier bottles with an order of shoestring fries, you can't go wrong with this hole-in-the-wall off Blanchard.
