Fremont Brewery is a brewery located in the Fremont neighborhood of Seattle, Washington, in the United States. The brewery is family-owned and creates small-batch artisan beers. Their beers have quickly become some of the best selling in the area.[1] Originally consisting of only a few tables in the brewery, the tasting room has expanded into a large part of the building and an outdoor seating area. An expanded brewing facility will open in neighboring Ballard to meet demand.[1] The increase to 250,000 barrels a year would put it among the top producing craft breweries in the United States.[2]

Beer

Brewers often use barley and other ingredients from Washington. Most hops are sourced from Yakima Valley and water comes from the Cedar River watershed in the Cascade Mountains.[3]

Popular brews include Universale Pale Ale, Interurban IPA, and Abominable Winter Ale.[4][5][6] The Bourbon Abominable Winter Ale won a bronze at the 2012 World Beer Cup.[7] In 2014, the Summer Ale and Bourbon Barrel Aged Dark Star Ale both won silvers at the Great American Beer Festival.[8]
