Hardliver Barleywine Festival this weekend at Brouwer’s Cafe

 

Below we share the list of beers pouring at Hardliver Barleywine Festival this weekend, February 25th and 26th. Brouwer’s Cafe in Seattle’s Fremont neighborhood hosts this annual event to showcase the biggest and boldest of all beer styles, Barleywine.

There will probably be a line outside the door before they open at 11:00 A.M. on Saturday morning, but don’t worry, there’s enough beer for everyone. In general, the line is all about enthusiasm and not necessity. If you want to be there when the doors open, and also get a table once you’re inside, the line is a good idea. However, since it is quite impossible to drink barleywine all day long, the crowd ebbs and flows throughout the day.

In all, Brouwer’s will tap into no less than 44 barleywines, which are listed below. More beer may be added to the already-impressive lineup.
