The strip along Leary Way in Seattle could be defined in a handful of different ways. It all depends on who you ask.<\/p>\n

Some might say this strip is territory of Fremont \u2014\u00a0one of the city\u2019s most artistic and vibrant neighborhoods. Others may argue that this area is definitely in Ballard\u2019s neck of the woods \u2014\u00a0a neighborhood that exudes class and trendiness through its seemingly endless lineup of restaurants, boutiques and beaches. And then there are those that might throw their hands up in the air, saying that this one is just too close to call, choosing to define it by a bit of both: Frelard. This is not only the most fun to say, but perhaps the most diplomatic, here in the Emerald City.<\/p>\n

Whatever it may be, it\u2019s true that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet \u2014\u00a0or in this case, a neighborhood by any other name would be as bustling\u2014\u00a0at least when it comes to small and independent breweries. This industrial strip is one of Seattle\u2019s most vivacious, experimental and consistent neighborhoods in regards to craft. It\u2019s also among one of the nation\u2019s most walkable spots for beer lovers.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, it\u2019s time for you to take a visit. We suggest you start with a few of our favorites: Stoup Brewing, Reuben\u2019s Brews, Lucky Envelope and Populuxe Brewing.<\/p>\n

(Walk This Way: Asheville’s South Slope<\/a> | The Denver Highlands<\/a><\/strong>)<\/p>\n

Stoup Brewing |\u00a01108 NW 52nd St.<\/h2>\n

Sure, the strip along Leary Way may cause a bit of confusion thanks to its ambiguous location, but one thing is universally agreed upon: Here in Seattle, no matter who you ask or how you ask it, one of the finest breweries in the neighborhood (and perhaps in the entire city) is, without a doubt, Stoup Brewing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Started by husband-wife duo Lara Zahaba and Brad Benson in 2013, Stoup has quickly established itself as a brewery to know. Now made up of a small and mighty three-person team (Zahaba, Benson and Certified Cicerone\u00ae Robyn Schumacher), Stoup is as humble in nature as it is consistent in quality. It has set a new standard for what it means to be a mouth-watering IPA or a fulfilling porter, capturing the true craft of craft.<\/p>\n

Their beer exudes a certain soul that cannot be described, but only tasted. So fill your stoup (which is an old-age term for a drinking vessel) with their Citra IPA, Robust Porter or NW Red.<\/p>\n

Reuben\u2019s Brews |\u00a05010 14th Ave NW<\/h2>\n

Just a few blocks away from Stoup is another Seattle beer scene staple: Reuben\u2019s Brews<\/a>. Adam and Grace Robbings, co-founders of the brewery and proud parents to son Reuben, continuously and effortlessly capture what it is to be a fine Seattle brewery. They have an ever-changing line-up, an energetic taproom and genuine intentions. Oh \u2014\u00a0and a killer resume.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve heard of Reuben\u2019s, it\u2019s no surprise. This family-owned brewery has swept up handfuls of awards since opening in 2012, including two 2015 Great American Beer Festival awards, a gold medal at the 2015 World Beer Cup and over 30 World Beer Championship Medals. So it goes without saying that their beer surpasses good, and instead lands somewhere in the area between \u201cworthy of writing home about\u201d and \u201cpour me another immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n

Though every beer you have will be worthy of your tastebuds, we suggest paying special attention to Reuben\u2019s line-ups of pungent IPAs, rich stouts and smooth ales.<\/p>\n

Lucky Envelope Brewing |\u00a0907 NW 50th St<\/h2>\n

They might be one of the younger breweries on the block, opening the tasting room doors in 2015, but Lucky Envelope Brewing<\/a> has quickly established itself as another Seattle staple. It\u2019s a consequence of Brewmaster Barry Chan\u2019s lineup being perfected for the Pacific Northwest palate. Expect quite a few IPAs on tap at any given time, with each bringing its own individualities to your table.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lucky Envelope is still new enough it might not have the universal recognition that their neighbors have earned, but it\u2019s only a matter of time before it catapults into the limelight. With recent wins at GABF for the Helles Lager and the 2016 Washington Beer Awards for its ENIAC Mosaic IPA, Lucky Envelope will soon achieve household name status in Seattle. We\u2019ll put 20 bucks on it.<\/p>\n

We beg you not to leave the taproom without trying any of Chan\u2019s IPAs or the Peanut Butter Stout \u2014\u00a0if it\u2019s on tap.<\/p>\n

Populuxe Brewing |\u00a0826B NW 49th St.<\/h2>\n

Perhaps the most unassuming brewery on the block, Populuxe Brewing<\/a> could be easily missed if you\u2019re not watching out for it. Keep an eye out for a charming, humble blue abode and you\u2019ll know that you\u2019ve found the spot. This place\u2019s beer is a little deluxe here, a little popular there, hence it\u2019s title \u2014\u00a0and it\u2019s also a guarantee of a good time.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Populuxe might be the dark horse in Leary Way\u2019s race to fantastic craft beer. They are small but mighty, and new but growing. The brewery recently announced an expansion to the lot next door, which will be home to a 7-barrel brewhouse, 15-barrel fermenters and a larger taproom with 20 taps to meet the ever-flowing demand. All of Populuxe\u2019s beers are rotating, so expect something refreshing and emerging any time you visit. The expansion should open in the spring.<\/p>\n

Pick up one of their beers and play some cornhole, or perhaps cozy up around the fire out on the back patio. All of Populuxe’s beers are rotating, so you can expect something refreshing and emerging every time you stop by.<\/p>\n

So, friends, put on your walking shoes, because it\u2019s time to visit the neighborhood tucked behind Leary Way. And, just so you\u2019re completely in the know, Ballard has, indeed, claimed the area. But, let\u2019s be honest \u2014\u00a0that won\u2019t stop us from saying Frelard as much as possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
