Yelp's Beertopia with The Northwest Ale Trail

Yelp’s Spokane promoters are teaming up with the savvy folks behind the Inland Northwest Ale Trail to host a fall beer-tasting bonanza on a chilly, midweek evening. Breaking from the standard lineup of tried-and-true local favorites, the event highlights several up-and-coming beer makers from across the Northwest, including Moses Lake’s Ten Pin Brewing and St. Brigid’s Brewery. From farther south, Kennewick’s Ice Harbor Brewery also has a handle. The rest of the lineup are all closer to home: Cheney’s New Boundary Brewing and Mead’s 238 Brewing, joined by Spokane Valley-based Badass Backyard Brewing and English Setter Brewing, along with the newly founded Bellwether Brewing and Bennedito’s Brewpub.
