Everett Craft Beer Festival

Everett Craft Beer Festival
Sat. August 19th Noon-8pm
Downtown Everett (Hewitt Ave. & Hoyt Ave.)

Saturday, August 18th, the Washington Beer Commision will host their first ever Everett Craft Beer Festival featuring 26 local Washington breweries. Over 60 different ales will be poured with names by the likes of Caboose Oatmeal Stout, “Bedraggled” Irish Red Ale & Ziggy Zoggy Summer Lager etc. We’re tellin’ ya, these beers won’t disappoint!  Boundary will be spicing it up with some of our own specialty seasonals…we’re bringing a Ginger Peach Blonde and our newest concoction: Thai-PA.

Ginger Peach Blonde: as a straightforward lighter bodied ale, this Blonde is brewed with generous amounts of German pilsner and Vienna malts that balance with a crisp yet cleansing Noble Saaz hop finish. We added Fresh Hawaiian ginger and natural peach extract creating a just hint of sweet & spicy flavor. OG 1.070

Thai-PA: A honey-ambered colored India Pale Ale with good body, fairly strong alcohol content and an aggressive “fresh hop” quality. Heavily dry hopped with kaffir lime leaves and lemon grass, this beer has a zesty citrus taste. OG 1.052

BBAY Got Soul

We are partnering up with Alligator Soul in Everett for a Virtual Brewers Night on Thursday, November 18th from 6-9 pm.  Now, before you get all hot and bothered…we’re not asking you to taste VIRTUAL beers.  We’d never deprive you of the joy of our hand crafted beverages!  We do, however, want you to come to Alligator Soul and communicate virtually (meaning via social networks) about all the happenings…while it’s actually happening!  There’s going to be live music, specials, prizes, and more!

Alligator Soul has been proudly serving its N’awlins-style cuisine in Everett, Washington since 1995. This place is known for good grub and great people with the goal of giving folks a taste of true Southern hospitality. It should be no surprise, then, that it is where people flock for great Cajun and Creole food in the Northwest.  Lucky for us, you can always find Boundary Bay Brewery beers on tap among their 18 taps of mostly local and regional beers!

We, along with Alligator Soul, are big believers in social media for our businesses, but we also think community is really, really important.  So, during a Virtual Brewers Night, we get to combine the best of both worlds!  Anyone is welcome at this event, but we’re particularly interested in those who tweet and are already craft beer fans.  In preparation for the big event, don’t forget to “follow” us and Alligator Soul on Twitter: @BoundaryBay and @Alligator_Soul.  Following us on Twitter will also be how you get in on the Virtual action during the Brewers Night!

Here’s how it’s going to work:  make sure you BRING you smartphone with you to this Brewers Night and use the #tag we’ve set up for the event, which is #bbaygotsoul – especially because everyone who tweets about the event (while AT the event) and uses the #tag will be entered into a drawing for some sweet, sweet schwag!  Also, be sure to look for tweets before the event for a coupon for some awesome FREE cajun food, then bring in your smartphone and show them the coupon from your phone to score free food that night.  During the event, the Boundary Bay Twitter account will be fully staffed and ready to answer all your questions about our beer, our business…or whatever!  So tweet your questions to us during the event and keep an eye on the live Twitter feed up on the tv at Alligator Soul for our answers to your inquiries.  There’ll be plenty of other fun too like live music and trivia questions that just might net you $1 off your beer if you get the right answer!

So, bring your smartphones and show up at Alligator Soul on November 18th.  Prepare for great beer, tasty cajun food, live music, social media and more!  See you there.
