A tour of an area around Seattle for beer lovers - whether you're local or coming in from out of town. Some more unusual, hidden gems will be included for any locals who might want to tag along and find new spots. It will also include some awesome area history, scenic rides wherever possible, restaurant stops, and the opportunity to see more than just the city.

This is not a low-budget event. Also, much like the Pub Crawl, this is not a frat boy event. We're trying to pace the liquor so that everyone has a good time, including the guy that you didn't puke on.

Wednesday 8/30 from 9am - 9pm

• Transportation

• Happy Hour snacks

• Beer Passport

South to Tacoma. See the itinerary section above for specifics.

$100 to reserve.



If we reach our quota of 25 people, the price will drop to around $88 or less and I'll refund you the difference or you can donate it to Child's Play. Most of the price is based on splitting the cost of the bus evenly and I'd rather give people money back than ask for more if we don't make our quota.

Bus - $1850

Happy Hour Snacks - $11 per person

Water and snacks on the bus - $20

Beer Passports - $50



There simply aren't any inexpensive group transportation options in Seattle anymore. In 2015, we discovered that the approximately $25/per person increase in price between a school bus and a party bus made a HUGE difference in the comfort and fun of the ride. Just the bus costs $1800 for the day but it's worth the money, trust me.

Yes but it's discouraged after August 15. People change their travel plans to attend this tour, so it's tough to fill in vacancies at the last minute. Also, since the ticket price is largely dependent on dividing the cost of the van between everyone on the tour, cancellations that we can't fill with a warm body makes a huge headache for everybody on the day of the tour, as I try to recalculate the cost and figure out exactly who owes what. Of course, I understand that shit happens but please make every effort to stick to your reservation.

Sure, if you have your own car and designated driver. We'll be in a rural area pretty far out of the city and won't be accessible by bus or taxi.

Suggest away! All suggestions are welcome but keep in mind that stops will be decided on the following criteria:



- Proximity to the tour route

- Hours (they need to be open, or willing to open for us)

- Size (macro breweries are discouraged)

- Willingness to accommodate the tour

The ticket link will be posted at the very beginning of the thread.

We always need helpers.

Seattle loves its beer. There are a ridiculous number of macro, micro and nanobreweries in and around the Seattle area, from small garage operations that sell growlers on the weekends, to large factories pumping out nationally distributed brews. Most Seattleites either home brew or know someone who does and the options here are amazing.

If you can't make it to any of the tours, just check out the Washington State Beer Lovers (WABL) Brewery map and make up your own tour.

8/29 UPDATE: @JobiwanKenobi has put together a walking tour of breweries around the Ballard/Fremont neighborhoods for tomorrow, Wed. Aug 30 See the posts at the end of this thread for details.8/15 CANCELLED7/15 ORIGINAL POSTWashington State has almost 200 craft breweries, many with small-scale artisan brews that you're not going to find anywhere else in the world. Seattle is truly Beer Geek Heaven. The SchlitzKrieg is a beer tour for locals and out-of-towners alike, and focused on tiny up and coming nano-breweries that you probably won't find in the store. Throw in a little local history, an interesting scenic ride, and you've got a great way to spend a day outside of the Convention Center, where you can see more of the city than just the downtown.was the first ever SchlitzKrieg at PAX Prime, where 30 Beer Geeks were loaded onto a big yellow bus and we toured 12 local craft breweries in the greater Seattle Area in 12 hours. You can check out that year's thread here and photos courtesy of @courtneyj from the first year here was a Cycle Saloon tour around the breweries in the Seattle neighborhood of Ballard. It was fun but too much work.was a little strange, as we didn't get enough people to fill up a full bus so we all crammed into a van and a car. It wasn't terrifically comfortable.was the year we got a motherfucking party bus, bitches!was our Fifth Annual Schlitzkrieg, where we headed South and threw in some cideries and distilleries to mix up the beer a bit. Also, party bus.will be a revisit of the South Sound area, with focus on Tacoma or Olympia, and definitely a revisit to a couple of our favorite 2016 spots (we're looking at you, Sidetrack Distillery).We're getting the badass party bus again, and a banquet permit so you can drink on the bus again, AND there's a gaming laptop hookup to the video screens on the bus so we can play while we're traveling again. It's seriously an amazing time.Big Ass Bus PhotosWednesday, August 309:00 AM - 9:00 PM(you may gaze upon 2016's magnificence until the 2017 map is ready)Ticket Link will be posted in JulyTickets will cost $100 per person to reserve, and covers:- The awesome bus (expensive but awesome)- Beer Passport- Driver Gratuity- Happy Hour Snacks at SidetrackThe ticket price goes down as we get more people on board to share the fixed cost of the bus.22 people = $100 per ticket (minimum signups required)25 people = $88 per ticket27 people = $82 per ticket- will compete against each other for fun and the knowledge that you’re a winner.What is it?What isn't it?When is it?What's included for the price?What's not included?Where Are you Going?How much will it cost?How is the cost calculated?Can I change my mind/plans/existence and get a refund?Can I attend just a portion of the tour?I have a better/different stop/place/brewery to suggest:How do I sign up and/or pay?Do you need any helpers?Why a Beer Tour?I can't go/It's out of my budget: Will there be another event later?
