USA, WA: Pike Brewing relocating its operations
The brewery anchored next to Seattle's Pike Place Market for more than 30 years is moving out of downtown, KUOW reported on October 17.
Pike Brewing is relocating its operations to SoDo.
The brewery's Pike Pub and Pike Fish Bar will stay put at their current spot on First Avenue, a block from the market.
In a statement from the company, it called the move "a milestone" that heralds "a new era," and that the SoDo location will be a "state-of-the-art facility." Beer production at the new brewery will begin in January 2024.
The timing is sentimental. Pike Brewing tapped its first keg on Oct. 17, 1989. The Pike Pale Ale was the first beer the company brewed at 1415 First Ave. On Wednesday, Oct. 18 — 34 years later — Pike Pale Ale will be the last brew produced at that location.
