Beer Hiking Pacific Northwest Guidebook

Beer lovers and hiking enthusiasts, these 52 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.

This 232-page, full-color guidebook features beer hikes from Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia. Every hiking route includes detailed information: degree of difficulty, duration, points of interest, and also a description of the beer: color, nose and taste.

The Authors

The authors, Brandon Fralic and Rachel Wood are pioneers of Beer Hiking in the Pacific Northwest. In 2013 they launched this site, 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.
