A few months ago I was looking around for local breweries to check out. Some friends of mine and I had visited Black Raven, Bushnell, and HiFi in Redmond, and I wanted to see if there was anything closer to home, here in Kirkland. Two things came up. The first was Flycaster, up near Totem Lake. The second was Chainline Brewing Company, which was... wait a minute... right on my walk to work? The following Monday, on my walk to work, I peered into the address where this brewery supposedly was located, but there wasn't really anything going on. It just looked like an empty building. I did some more searching around online, and they were still trying to get the required licenses and so forth to start building out their brewery. It turned out that the ballet school next door was putting up a big fuss about it, thinking that basically a bar was moving in next door. I made sure to write my local representatives and express my support. I mean, a brewery blocks from work? How awesome would that be?Follow my exploits as I brew, taste, and talk about beer and related beverages! Brew days, DIY projects, tasting notes, information, and (humble) opinions.
