FREE Beer Sunday – Half Lion Brewing
About:
A couple weeks after brewing our first batch of homebrew David and some friends finished a day of skiing at Crystal mountain and decided to swing through Enumclaw to give that first beer a try. In those early days we were brewing at a friends house and they owned a Great Dane named Tonka. Andy, David’s younger brother, was fascinated by Tonka’s size. She was such a huge animal! Questions, and beers, were raised, “Why were Great Danes bred to be so large?“ Answers, and more beers, were given, “To hunt and kill lions, I think.“ When it was time to go, everyone hopped into the car to head back home. One of the visiting skiers was puzzled, he was shaking his head and chuckling to himself and everyone started to ask what what his deal was. He continued in full seriousness, “So wait… You guys are telling me…that dog is Half Lion?!“ In bouncing from conversation to conversation he had confused the hunting of lions conversation into thinking a dog and a lion had been bred to create Great Danes.
When it came time to name our beer, this story came up again and again. Finally, we knew there was no other name for us. We’ve always had an amazing time brewing together with friends and family, it was fitting that a friend (who maybe enjoyed one too many Half Lion Beers) would be the guy to give us our name. At the end of the day it’s all about friends and family here at Half Lion Brewing Co. So, enjoy a beer, make some new friends and become part of the family.
