Peaks and Pints Chocolate Beer Valentine @ Peaks and Pints
Tickets
Feb 14 @ 11:00 am – 11:00 pm

For beer snobs, their love of beer comes in a close second only to their true loves. But there is nothing that says, “I love you” more on Valentine’s Day than offering them a snifter or two of chocolate beer.

Brewers make chocolate beers in a variety of ways, whether adding chocolate to the brewing process or using chocolate malts. The style usually comes in the form of a browns, porters and stouts. The flavor of chocolate in these styles is rich and tasty and the smell is aromatic. When chocolate beer hits your lips, it’s like an alcoholic chocolate explosion.

Peaks and Pints will tap several chocolate goodies Thursday, Feb. 14, including Perennial Abraxas, Rogue Double Chocolate Stout, Boulevard Chocolate Ale, 10 Barrel German Chocolate Cake, Avery Raspberry Truffale, Fort George From Russia With Love and others.

This is chocolate’s Super Bowl folks, and you should plan a stop at Peaks and Pints for no other reason than chocolate’s a natural aphrodisiac. Cheers!

PEAKS AND PINT CHOCOLATE BEER VALENTINE, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., Peaks and Pints, 38916 N. 26th St., Basecamp Proctor, Tacoma, no cover

Scouts’ Honor: Girl Scout cookies paired with Rainy Daze beers @ Peaks and Pints
Tickets
Feb 21 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Just in case you somehow missed them in front of supermarkets, annoying account supervisor Chuck at your office or at your front door, Girl Scout Cookie Season has arrived. Through this annual tradition, Girl Scouts across the region learn valuable life skills, earn badges and generate work for local dentists. Once you’ve filled your cupboards with Thin Mints, Samoas or whichever cookies you prefer, you might be tempted to sit back and enjoy them with a nice, tall glass of milk. But here at Peaks and Pints we prefer pairing our cookies with Rainy Daze Brewing beers.

Thursday, Feb. 21, the Poulsbo brewery will celebrate the most delicious season of the year, when taste buds get to revel in the glory of Thin Mints, Shortbreads, Peanut Butter Patties and other Girl Scout cookies paired with Baltic Porter, Dukes Up Red, Sunrise Coffee Porter, Test Drive Amber, Goat Boater IPA and other Rainy Daze beers at Peaks and Pints bottle shop, taproom and restaurant in Tacoma’s Proctor District.

“It’s fun, and it’s tasty,” says Rainy Daze founder and head brewer Mike Montoney. “That’s what beer is supposed to be about anyway.”

Cookies will be paired with pints, snifters and tulips full of Rainy Daze deliciousness, as well as a five-beer, five-cookie flight option.

Like so many things in life, Girl Scout cookies are a fleeting pleasure. They’ll only be available for a short, period of time. Then you’ll have to resort to black-market eBay buying. Feb. 21 is your chance to taste most of the Girl Scout Cookies in one sitting.

SCOUTS HONOR: GIRL SCOUT COOKIES PAIRED WITH RAINY DAZE BEERS, 6 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 21, Peaks and Pints, 3816 N. 26th St., Basecamp Proctor, Tacoma, no cover
