Aslan Brewing from Bellingham, WA, is doing a three stop 2018 Barrel Project Retrospective, with events January 17th in Portland, January 23rd in Seattle and the 24th and 26th back in Bellingham. While Aslan may be known for organic ales and lagers, the brewery has building an extensive barrel program for years that culminated in opening a separate taproom called Aslan Depot to focus on the many wild and experimental beers."Over the past year we’ve been able to release 10 different projects from our barrel program and are honored to share them with you all," says owner Boe Trosset. "We have planned a small tour of events with the help of close friends around the Pacific Northwest to curate four different experiences, culminating in the Aslan Depot's 1 year Anniversary Party."Note that the dinner pairings at The Masonry (Seattle) and Ciao Thyme (Bellingham) are ticketed events.Each event will feature a different presentation and lineup:
