Peaks and Pints Beer Flight: Scary Great Notion

Share

Halloween is rapidly approaching, and if you’re like Peaks & Pints then that means you’re rapidly preparing to spend an evening dressed as your deepest, darkest fantasy. Peaks & Pints believes in early preparation with Halloween beers, too, and has gathered five Great Notion Brewing Halloween-themed beers as our beer flight today. In 2016, James Dugan, Andy Miller, and Paul Reiter opened Great Notion Brewing and stunned Portland, Oregon with their New England-style IPAs and boundary-pushing culinary-style beers. The awards followed: World Beer Cup, GABF, Best of Craft Beer Awards, and Oregon Beer Awards, as well as the 2018 #1 IPA in America from Paste Magazine, Ripe IPA. Stop by our beer bar, bottle shop and restaurant in Tacoma’s Proctor District and enjoy these five scary Great Notion beers in a flight we’re calling Peaks and Pints Beer Flight: Scary Great Notion.
