…
Upon first glance, Pike’s Pub looks like a typical brewpub situated in the touristy part of Seattle. But step inside their beer museum and soon one uncovers the little-known of history of hops and holiness. Herewith, my findings:
-
- Beer And the Church Wall, Pike’s Pub
-
- The Naughty Nellie Room used to be part of a whorehouse…
-
- Famous hatchet used by temperance warrior Carrie Nation in 1901 to smash in saloon windows.
