Brewvet #11 - Pike Place Kilt Lifter Ruby Ale at Three Lions Pub

Time for something different today. A brewvet mixed with a little trail riding.

I'm lucky enough to live about 2.5 miles from the Redmond Watershed. The watershed features several smooth, easy, fun-to-ride multi-use trails. Several of the trails are designated "hiker only", and a few are "hikers & equestrians", so pay attention to permitted trail use if you visit.

I hopped on my trust hard tail mountain bike, and headed to the Watershed.

After a few laps around the watershed, I headed over to Three Lions Pub for on Redmond Ridge for a beer and a snack. Three Lions features mostly UK beers, but on this particular day their featured beer on tap was Pike Brewing's Kilt Lifter Ruby Ale. The Kilt Lifter has a beautiful color and just enough hoppiness to keep it interesting.

After a beer and a little fish & chips, I headed home. All in all, it was a great afternoon!
