    Humulus lupulus and roasted malt meet in this wonderfully complex beer. Dark and malty with loads of Northwest hops including a hefty helping of Columbus and Cascade Cryo to bring on the old school dank! Sure to satisfy both malt and hop lovers alike with some IPA business up front and a Porter party in the back.

Watts Brewing-Bothell – Table #22

  • The Leafcutter (Kölsch), 5.1% ABV
    A bright, crisp beer inspired by the ales of Köln, Germany. We took the precision of this classic German style and adapted it to the American palate with PNW-grown hops, producing a beer of surprising depth and nuance for such a refreshing style.
  • Xylocopa (Stout), 6.2% ABV
    An intense, pitch-black stout with bold flavors of coffee and dark cocoa from the roasted malts. This beer takes its name from the jet-black carpenter bees, genus Xylocopa.
  • Stingo (Wood-aged Strong Ale), 8.0% ABV
    This English-style strong ale is already a complex mélange of rich malt character, but extended aging on Spanish cedar and cypress takes it to the next level. Our tasting notes include molasses, leather, toast, aromatic cedar, and yellow cake.

In addition to the extensive tap list, there will be three food trucks – Big Dogs Grill, Cascadia Pizza Co., and Woodshop BBQ. There will also be snacks at the fest from Po Papa’s Nuts and BrewMasters Bakery.
