New Brewery BY Ace Hardware

 Looking for a new favorite hangout in North Bend? 🍺 We went inside the brand-new Blackwater Brewing to see why everyone is talking about the "Ace Hardware brewery.   It’s no secret that North Bend has been craving more dining and social spaces. Enter Blackwater Brewing Company—the newest taproom and brewery in the Snoqualmie Valley. Located right in the Ace Hardware complex, this isn't your average "garage" setup. We sat down with Brewmaster Vince (formerly of Northwest Brewing Company) to talk about their fresh start, their "approachable" beer philosophy, and why they decided to include a full bar—a game-changer for groups where not everyone is a beer drinker.  The Beer: A look at their consistent, handcrafted brews like the Slop Side Lager, Stormy Days IPA, and "The Myth" (a must-try Schwarzbier). The Food: Why you’ll never see a fryer here. We’re talking 16-inch handcrafted pizzas and savory pies. The Vibe: All-ages friendly, live music featuring local artists like Nick Mardon and Whiskey Ridge, and their upcoming Trivia Nights.
