Beer Hiking Pacific Northwest

by Rachel Wood, Brandon Fralic

Beer lovers and hiking enthusiasts, these 50 Pacific Northwest hikes are for you! Lasting between one and six hours, they follow carefully-selected trails chosen for their beauty. The end is without fail near a brewery or a brewpub where you can quench your thirst with a local craft beer.

Every hiking route includes detailed information: degree of difficulty, duration, point of interest, but also a description of the beer: color, nose and taste.

The authors, Brandon Fralic and Rachel Wood are pioneers of Beer Hiking in the Pacific Northwest. In 2013 they launched Beers at the Bottom to highlight hiking trails and craft breweries in Western Washington. Since then they’ve sampled hundreds of hikes and brews at home and abroad, publishing stories along the way. Both feel most at home in the North Cascades or at a local taproom — pint in hand.

[Max Pietsch · Rating 5 out of 5]

Amazing book just to inspire you to go get a beer and hike. The recommendations aren't things you couldn't find on your own.

[Janet · Rating 3 out of 5]

LOVE the concept but the book leaves a bit to be desired. Not easy to figure out exactly where these hikes are; involves a lot of flipping back and forth through the book to find numbers on a big vague map and then another vague map for each listing. Not intuitive. Probably best for a local weekend warrior and not someone like me heading out on vacation.
