Now in its sixth year, Beers Made By Walking (BMBW)
returns to Seattle! BMBW invites brewers to go on nature hikes led by volunteer
naturalists and brew beer inspired by plants found on the trail. All the
breweries participating are Partners of the Brewshed Alliance, which currently
has over 50 Washington breweries on board. This Washington Wild outreach program helps people make a simple connection:
healthy watersheds mean clean water, and clean water makes better beer.
Come out and join Washington Wild for a day on
the trail, enjoying the outdoors and hanging out with some of the breweries
that are behind protecting clean and healthy watersheds in Washington State. Each hike is free and open to the public, but RSVPs
are required. Hikers are accompanied by local brewers who must create a
hike-inspired beer in the fall for a special BMBW tapping event where you can
try all the nature-inspired brews at once. A list of hikes and sign ups are
available below.
These place-based beers serve as drinkable, landscape
portraits of the trails that are walked. Tapped during special events at Naked
City Brewery, the proceeds are donated to the Washington Wild. The full list of
beers will be published after the hikes are completed, but you can see hike
dates below if you'd like to add them to your calendar. We can't wait to get
outdoors with our volunteers, Brewshed Partners, and you!

Beers Made
By Walking
(BMBW) is a program that invites people to step outside and see the place they
live in a new light. We invite brewers to take nature walks
and make beer inspired by the plants identified on
the trail. Since 2011, we have worked with more than 100 breweries throughout
the country to create over 200 place-based beers.
Hiking and tasting events act as educational and fundraising programs for
environmental organizations in the regions they serve. Additional info: http://beersmadebywalking.com
