I'll be at Maritime Pacific Brewing tonight for the tapping of the official Seattle Beer Week beer - Decompression Ale. 

I have so much stuff planned over the next 10 days.  This week is gonna kill me!  lol

I struggled over this, but decided that even though it's a family free weekend for me, I'd rather brew than go to a bunch of beer events.  I'm going to go to Malt and Vine and stock up a bit, then spend the weekend making beer.

Well, I guess if I were on the mainland I'd be shickled titless.

That's a new one. 

Seattle Beer Week sounds like alot of fun. I love this time of year...but so many beer events and so little time.

Well, since I'm two hours away from Seattle, I can't do it all.  We've decided on the dinner with Charlie Finkle from Pike Brewing next weekend.  Plus, I can drop off some kegs to the WAHA guys for the trip down to San Diego.......

I picked up a couple of bottles of the Decompression Ale for decompressing after brewing this weekend.

That's just the weekend.  Seattle Beer Week is 10 days - it goes until the 29th. 

I hadn't planned on brewing this weekend anyway.  Too much other stuff going on even before Seattle Beer Week. I was offered 2 free tickets to the BBQ & Brews event at Wine World, featuring Kansas City BBQ & Boulevard Brewing beers.  I've also purchased tickets for the Firestone Walker & Homebrew Chef dinner at Brouwer's Cafe on the 23rd. 

If anyone's interested, I have a video up with the Official reading of the Mayor's Proclamation opening Seattle Beer Week and the tapping of the first keg/firkin of the Official Seattle Beer Week beer (Decompression).  You can see that video here: http://www.youtube.com/user/AHABeerMonger?feature=mhee#p/a/u/0/lZoJ3k-2Mlc

It wouldn't be much of a beer week if it only lasted for the weekend. But it was the family-free part that would let me get out to whatever I'd like this weekend, and I'm not having a full week family-free.  We might make one of the events during the week though, well see.

Seatlle Beer Week is great!  Sounds like they have events where you can take the whole famn damily!

The Firestone Walker & Homebrew Chef dinner at Brouwer's on the 23rd was a gastronomic orgy.  So damn good!

I wrote it up - complete w/ photos of each course here: http://beermonger.blogspot.com/2011/05/firestone-walker-homebrew-chef.html
