Walk in to Pints Alehouse on Newport Highway in north Spokane and you will be greeted with the scent of hops and the sight of 18 shiny taps. Pints features gluten-free choices among its ales, porters, IPAs, ambers and seasonals. After spending six years visiting more than 100 breweries from Spain to Mexico to the U.S., owners Derek and Patricia Quist can provide well-informed suggestions and knowledgeable guidance to customers.
