#killshot from our share in honor of our friend and publican Burc, who would've been 55 years old yesterday. Not included in the photo was the stand out: Hand of Glory bba barleywine from Holy Mountain. Support your locals, including beer bars. #bottleshare #lambic #beersky #bskybeer #craftbeer
Goddamnit this is terrible. Support your locals cuz otherwise they might not be around much longer
Damn! @georgetownbrewing.bsky.social out here quietly dropping a banger!!! Dark fruits, toffee, nice barrel heat. Price can't be beat either these days! Well done! #bil #barleywine #barleywineislife #bskybeer #beersky #craftbeer #seattlebeer

Grand Fir Brewing wasn’t necessarily looking for a new lead brewer and Trap Door Brewing head brewer Jake Watt wasn’t looking for a new gig. That all changed suddenly on August 6th when Trap Door o...

Even though I don't really enjoy IPAs, I had to grab this #atari pack of 2 IPAs, a sour, and a stout from Vice Brewing. Check the can art. Had to do it! #retrogaming #bskybeer #beersky #wabeer #craftbeer
Today's Tavour pickup was one for the ages. Yeah I might be a tad bit excited for this time of year. #prost #oktoberfest #marzen #festbier #beerhaul #craftbeer #beersky #bskybeer
First sip sets me 20 years into the past. Even though Granville Island sold out I still have a special place in my heart for this one. Cheers! #beersky #bskybeer #bcbeer #canadianbeer
Lakeside crispy and some friendly little critters make for a good day. Cheers! #bskybeer #beersky #lagerlife #crispyboi #capybara #bunnies #greatnorth
Airport burr to lakeside burr in under 2 hours. Next up is some sweet berry wine! Bonus photo of a relic from an ancient time! 🤣 Cheers! #beersky #bskybeer #canadianbeer #bcbeer #defunct
Wow, this reminds me of the #pastrybois that Modern Times was so good at. It has to strike the right balance with sweetness and not have an artificial taste with the adjuncts. Tasty and I'm glad I broke out of my bad habit of cellaring adjunct stouts. #Cheers! #beersky #bskybeer #stout #craftbeer
Another donation beer that was returned. Not terrible, but definitely past the prime as you would expect. I don't remember what this one was like fresh but I didn't have to drainpour it! I count it as a win #beersky #craftbeer #bskybeer #dustyboi #oldbeer #dirtyglass
Long story short: I donated this beer more than 5 years ago and I wound up back in my fridge. Nothing else to do but pop it. For only being 8.5% and a decade old, it held on pretty well. Cheers! #beersky #bskybeer #oldbeer #dustyboi #dirtyglass
Just to do something different I'll try to get better photos of wildlife on my daily walks. Here is a bunny
I have way too much glassware but I still might have to get this. Ignore my authentic stein from Munich, this is adorable
Being on all the festbiers. It's not too early, the time is right! Prost!
Enjoying a Dubsea hefeweizen for the first time attending a @gofishsticks.bsky.social game! Cheers! #craftbeer #seattlebeer #fishsticks
Had to stop into @georgetownbrewing.bsky.social for a couple of growlers. The Bitter Horseman ESB is a banger, brewed for Horse Brass which has been on my mind since losing Alan Sprints. Raising this one for him and HotD. #beersky #bskybeer #seattlebeer #maltyboi #bitter
Final thought that keeps nagging me is I didn't appreciate it enough while we had it. Still, a glorious ride and I feel lucky to have experienced it! #pdxbeer #portlandbeer #hotd #oldales #craftbeer
RIP Alan Sprints. Over the years his beers graced significant events and gatherings. For that I'll always be grateful. Undeniably part of my #BIL journey and helped my deep appreciation of old/stock ales. I was very lucky to drink from one of the few kegs of Adam at Horse Brass earlier this year.
The iconoclastic Alan Sprints of Hair of the Dog brewing died last night at 66. It is a huge loss not just for the industry, but for so many whose lives he touched. I wrote a long piece on Alan when he closed the brewery four years ago, and I’ll have a remembrance up later this morning.

After 29 years, Alan Sprints is shutting down Hair of the Dog and settling into a well-deserved retirement. For the first Sightglass post of 2022, I met with Alan to discuss his life, his legacy, and ...

A note on the news that Costco is ending their relationship with Deschutes to make a co-branded Kirkland Lager. From the start Deschutes knew this would end. I have spoken with people throughout the company, and they always expected Costco to move on-no matter how successful the beer was. 1/3
