A group of Seattle beer veterans revived the former home of Big Al Brewing, including brewer Kevin Watson, an alum of Elysian and Allagash. Watson’s downright scholarly about beer, but that doesn’t mean this bi-level space (with a kids’ play area!) traffics in the arcane. Future Primitive’s taps dispense myriad IPAs, plus Belgian table beer, porter, oatmeal stout…nothing academic, exactly—just textbook perfect.
