Harmon Brewery Comapny has built a space where folks can gather to drink beer, eat pizza, watch the game and gab away. Pat Nagle and partner Carole Holder built a production facility for their Harmon beers that doubles as a dining and retail space in the spot that once housed Stadium Bistro.

In a nutshell, it's a slick (Rusty George Creative touches everywhere) joint where beer enthusiasts can sip on Harmon's Point Defiance IPA (India Pale Ale) and Browns Point ESB (Extra Special Bitter) and their other brews while throwing back paninis, pizza and salads. During breaks in conversation or the game, patrons may watch brewers Mike Davis, Bill Lundeen and Jeff Carson craft beer through huge windows. The Tap Room pizza with spicy sausage, black olives, red onions and a delicious buttery crust will be my game buddy.

Down a long walkway, between the production room and the long, open kitchen, sits a game room with two pool tables, pinball machines and a lounge area.

Bonus: The large, European-style outdoor beer garden - designed by artist/architect/brewer Robert Horner - houses native plants as well as Northwest hops provided by hop grower Joel Attaway.
