As evident by our very first post on this web site, we like to enjoy other towns than Seattle when we travel to the west side. And why not? If you go to Issaquah, for example, there is Issaquah Brew House, a spot acquired by Rogue about ten years ago, which thus has pretty much all the great brewery has to offer on tap.

That’s a good thing, of course.

Be it the always excellent Chocolate Stout (great on bottle, double great from tap) or one of their many special brews, you will find them here. And of course, there’s always the opportunity to pick up a growler or bottles. Or atire.

And for the sake of variety, the Brew House still serves its own beers. The Menage a Frog, for example is well worth checking out.

The point being, if you go traveling, even to the west side of the state, there’s a lot to experience outside of Seattle’s city limits. Issaquah Brew House, conveniently located in downtown Issaquah on 35 W Sunset, offers up great ales and decent food. Definitely worth a look if you love the Rogue. And who doesn’t?

(Take one number off the rating if you go for the food only.)
