UNDERACHIEVER RECOGNITION
Although we've seen Engine House No. 9 Underachiever brew at MSM Deli, Doyle's, Masa, Broken Spoke, Rollies Tavern and Anthem Coffee, tasting it on its home turf is a joy.

21ST ON 21ST

WINGMAN BREWING HOLIDAY STYLE
White Betty and Black Widow may sound suspiciously similar to your ex-wives, they are actually Belgian Tripel Style Ale, fermented with Semillon wine grapes, and a Belgian Style Dark Strong Ale, fermented with Tempranillo wine grapes, respectively. Collaboration with 21 Cellars, the beer and wine matrimony should make your taste buds do a happy dance. Wingman Brewing will be introducing these two brews beginning at 2 p.m. Dec. 21 in its taproom (509 ½ Puyallup Ave., Tacoma). There's a very limited supply so arrive early!

The Engine House Number # 9 "Underachiever Beer Release Party" was a really good time. The only "problem"...."Way too many pretty girls in one place at one time." Come on ladies....."Get organized". Split up the "talent" among multiple locations. Most guys could barely find a place to sit down without being "trapped" by 2, 3 and 4 girls in groups....NOT COOL! We need are "space". Next time...Only take out (1) cute friend so we have a little more room to breathe...like really. Thank you.
