A few months ago we told you about a uncommon program designed to incorporate hiking and urban strolling into the brewing process: Beers Made By Walking. (read that post.) Today we are happy to announce that this Thursday, October 23 Naked City Brewery hosts a Beers Made By Walking tapping event. List of beers is below.

Beers Made By Walking is a program that invites brewers to make beer inspired by nature hikes and urban walks. Each walk is different, each beer is a portrait of that landscape. The program happens in multiple cities each year. This year, the program made stops and went for walks in Denver, Portland, Bend and Seattle, along with tapping events in Longmont and Fort Collins, Colorado.

Here’s the official announcement:

Our final Beers Made By Walking event of the year takes place in less than a week in Seattle, WA. We just compiled the list of beers that will be at the event and wanted to share them because the list is absolutely incredible looking. We’ve also added a tenth beer to the list, Hopworks from Portland, OR. The majority of these beers were based off three hikes in and around Seattle, led by the Friends of the Cedar River Watershed. On the 23rd, from 6-9pm, you’ll have the opportunity to drink these beers, and proceeds will be donated to FCRW.

  1. What a brilliant idea. Hope I can make it over there.

    BTW, I saw your article in Seattle Met Magazine. The idea of “if you like this kind of wine, you might try this kind of beer.”

    Again, Brilliant!

  2. Thank you Jack. The article is in the November issue of Seattle Magazine (not Met). Common mistake. Page 54 of the current issue of Seattle Magazine.
