About six months ago, Chaco Canyon, the organic cafe in the U-District obsessively frequented by UW’s raweys, vegans, and vegetarians (plus the people who love them), started serving alcohol. Organic alcohol, of course—wine, sake, and draft beers from Elliot Bay Brewing.

Now, says owner Chris Maykut, Chaco Canyon is going to start brewing its own beer.

“We pretty much make everything ourselves in house” says Maykut, “chai, chocolate sauce, ice cream, all soups, dressings…and our Head Chef [Lois Blanfold] is quite passionate about brewing. We just got our organic hops and four-tap tower in, so we should have a rotating housemade beer available in the coming months.”

Maykut promises to let me know when the new brews are available. I’ll keep you posted.
