Hoptoberfest Hopes

Posted on October 19, 2011 by Boundary Bay

Every year, the Beveridge Place Pub down in Seattle turns October into Hoptoberfest.  They feature around 12 Washington State IPAs that rotate through their taps and customers get a chance to vote on which IPA they want on tap EVERY SINGLE DAY at Beveridge Place Pub in 2012.

At the beginning of the month, you can nominate any Washington-brewed IPA, but by mid-October the voting gets whittled down to the top eight nominees.  To vote, you must head to the Beveridge Place Pub and order a pint of IPA.  You then get a ballot and can vote once a day…repeating throughout month as often as possible!  From October 15th – 24th, customers vote for which three, among the top eight, will advance to the final round.  After that, a general election ballot with the top three will be provided for voters until November 1st.

We’ve won the most customer votes four out of the five years that we’ve been a part of Hoptoberfest and have loved being the house IPA at Beveridge Place Pub!  We’re hoping to retain our title as reigning champ and bring lots of BBAY IPA love to Seattlites through 2012 too.  And we need your help!  If you’re already in the Seattle area, go to the Beveridge Place Pub as often as your spouse or wallet allows (which is no hardship, we’re sure!) and vote for Boundary Bay Brewery when you get your ballot.  However, if you’re not in the neighborhood, why not plan a road tripping to Seattle when we do!?!  We’re planning a Brewers Night at the Beveridge Place Pub on Monday, October 24th…and we’re hoping to have a whole crowd of BBAY fans show up too.

The festivities will start, officially, around 5pm.  But we’ll probably show up a little early to rub elbows with the regulars, so swing by if you manage to wriggle out of work a little early.  There’ll be special treats (like our beloved Mac N Cheese and locally made pretzels from Ralf’s Bavarian Pretzels), raffle prizes and $3 pints during the brewers night, so come join the fun!  If you know anything about last year’s Boundary Bay Brewers Night, you KNOW this is an evening not to be missed.  Cheers!

BBQing With Beer

Posted on June 29, 2011 by Boundary Bay

Now that summer’s finally here (well, in theory at least!), what’s better than spending a weekend afternoon BBQing and drinking beer?  We think the only thing better than that is BBQing WITH beer – especially Boundary Bay Brewery beer!

Here in our latest video, Matt Hanson, our Kitchen Manager, shows us how to make a Jamaican Jerk marinade with Boundary Bay IPA.  In the video, he marinates steak, but he’s quick to point out that this marinade would be equally great on chicken or even tofu!  Check it out:

Our IPA is undoubtedly our most popular beer and it’s available in kegs, pony kegs, growlers and in 22 oz. bottles here at the brewery.  Don’t forget, you can always head over to the Boundary Bay Brewery YouTube channel to check out all of Matt’s cooking videos.  Cheers!

Take Back the Tap This Hoptoberfest!

Posted on October 12, 2010 by Boundary Bay

 

 

Hoptoberfest, to those in the know, is the best time of the year for hop heads in Washington State!

Every year, during the month of October, Beveridge Place Pub in West Seattle features rotating taps of Washington State IPA’s and is also when the bar lets their regulars pick which IPA the Beveridge Place will have on tap for them for a full year!  Here’s how it works:  during the month of October, every time you head over to the Beveridge Place Pub and order a pint of IPA, you get to place a vote for your favorite IPA that you’d like to see become the 2011 House IPA.

This year, Hoptoberfest kicks off on October 4th and the Beveridge Place will feature up to 16 rotating Washington State IPA’s on tap for nearly a month of “bitter revelry”!  The elimination tournament kicks off with regulars being allowed to nominate (until October 15th!) any Washington-brewed IPA, but no Imperials.  Then, as each week progresses, the field of IPA’s gets smaller and smaller with the field narrowing to just three finalists after the first three weeks of the competition.  The last IPA standing is the one who received the most votes over the month and will be declared the House IPA for the following year.

Our Boundary Bay Brewery IPA has been the Hoptoberfest champion for years…except for 2010.  Last year, Black Raven won the title of House IPA and ended our reign for “as long as anyone can remember” (according to Seattle Beer News!).  We were in the top three finalists last year, along with the Black Raven Trickster IPA and the Harmon Point Defiance IPA.

And while we are fully in support of Washington craft beer we want to Take Back the Tap in this year’s Octoberfest!  And we need YOUR help!  Come on Boundary Bay Brewery fans, rally the troops and head to West Seattle!

Here’s what you can do: head to the Beveridge Place Pub as many times as you like during the month of October and drink many, many pints of IPA so that you can vote many, many times. We suggest marking Boundary Bay Brewery on that ballot, but we’ll leave it up to you!
