Rooftop Brewing

For our second Walk to the Pub, we ventured across the Ballard Bridge to Rooftop Brewing. First and foremost, it is unpleasant to walk across the Ballard Bridge -- a narrow walkway, traffic streaming by,  bikes zooming up behind ... etc.

And then, of course, trying to figure out where pedestrians are supposed to go without walking in the road ... well, we did some serious cross-dirt trekking, climbed over a road barrier, and dashed across a blind curve. Whee.

But then we found Rooftop Brewing ... which was RAMMED because they were having a special event linking a comic book called "Stargazer" with their beer called "Stargazer"... we waited quite a while to get our pints, then made our way to the outdoor deck and found a small space to perch where we could stand in the sun. Food truck outside, lots of folks and dogs crowded into the space. It felt like the perfect spot to go on a weekend afternoon...

I was completely intrigued by this well-used patio heater; the warping and the colors ...

Verdict: I'd try Rooftop Brewing again, but wish we could magically cross the Ballard Bridge...  but then again, we wouldn't be walking ...
