Brews in Redmond WA (Seattle)

I will be traveling to Redmond for 2 weeks for training and I am looking for must go places and must try beers. I am a fan of the Hoppy Cascadian ales, but don’t want something with really high ABV, under 6%.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Are you stuck in Redmond or can you get over to Seattle? Two of my favorite spots are by UW, Big Time Brewery (brewpub) and Schultzy’s Sausage, which usually has German beers on tap.

There are numerous good APAs in the PNW. Deschutes Mirror Pond, Full Sail Pale, Manny’s Pale Ale all come to mind. Check out beermapping.com. It’s a great way to locate bars and beer stores while traveling.
