Bainbridge Street Barrel House "A Killer Shade of Pale," September 25

Bainbridge Street Barrel House

The grandfather of American craft brewing is arguably the pale ale, a style pioneered by Ken Grossman at Sierra Nevada in the 1980s. Since Sierra Nevada Pale Ale hit the market, many others have followed, and even with the rise of other styles (the hoppier, IPA, or Imperial Pale Ale, for example), the original is still a fantastic example of U.S. craft beer.

To celebrate the “workhorse” of our country’s craft brewing scene, Bainbridge Street Barrel House is dedicating the night of September 25 to the style. More than 22 taps will be pouring pale ales from local brewers and those around the country. Check out the list below and head over to the Bella Vista bar starting at 4 PM on Wednesday to take advantage of all the pale ale bounty.
