Deep Draft Brewing

Deep Draft Brewing Craft brewery/Tasting room featuring German-style craft beer with a nautical theme. Veteran founded & fought for-- like your Freedom!
(1)

Open to all ages, pet friendly, large outdoor beer garden; small snacks available; outside food welcome. Deep Draft Brewing is named to honor the deep water ships that have been an integral part of Puget Sound's history, particularly in Bremerton, homeport to USN aircraft carriers and submarines and Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. We also like to think we craft a "thinking man's (or woman's)" beer. In

2011, George Wood (a retired pattern maker) and Erik Sweet (a nuclear trained Navy Mustang) were homebrewing and drinking lots of beer... Somewhere in their cups, they got the idea that George (and Erik) could brew better beer than most and wouldn't it be fun to run a brewery when Erik retired? Without much effort, Erik convinced his Love, Linda, and they all acquired the old condemned Wig Wam Tavern property in Gorst that had a garage out back that seemed suitable for a brewery. With a LOT of help from a LOT of friends, from Oct 2011-May 2012, they renovated and opened the Wig Wam Pub, a beer bar with 16 taps of craft beer and some amazing TX-style BBQ to boot! It was founded and has continued with love, friendship, and community. Over the next three years, George and Erik and Linda were dreaming, scheming, and planning the brewery-to-be, acquiring used equipment, making contacts in the WA brewing community, and continuing to do lots of "research." Erik was set to retire in May 2015 and Linda was still on active duty, a Destroyer Captain in Pearl Harbor, HI (a DDG is the inspiration for the mast on our logo). On 26 April 2015, 4 days from his retirement date after 26+ years in the Navy, Erik tragically drowned in Kailua, HI while he and Linda were competing in a run-swim event. Since late 2015, Linda's been back in WA and with the tremendous support and love of their Wig Wam family and friends, George and Linda kept moving forward. Our master brewer is a man known to many as "Uncle Beer" and George, Linda & some regular helpers happily assist. Uncle Beer brewed for Thomas Kemper back in the day and has been masterfully home brewing on an impressive scale ever since. We opened February 14, 2019 ... the dream lives on, the beer is flowing and Deep Draft Brewing is a destination for marvelously crafted beer and a place for old sea-going salts and the salt of the earth people of the Kitsap Peninsula to enjoy a pint (or three) with Shipmates, battle buddies, and friends.

‘‘Twas the night before kickoff down by the Bay, Soft fog wrapped the skyline in silver-blue gray.

The bridges were glowing, the crowd felt the weight, Of navy and action green storming the gate.

The 12s filled the streets with a roar you can’t fake, Turning Levi’s electric with every chant that they make. Patriot fans bragged of banners long past, While Seattle just smiled-tomorrow comes fast.

The cable cars clattered, the shoreline alive, Espresso in hand as the loud chants arrive. “SEA!” Cut the fog like a battle-horn call, “HAWKS!” Cracked the silence- the loudest of all.

Voices gone hoarse from yelling “SEA! HAWKS!”, Homes split down the middle from playful trash talks. With pride in our pocket and a yearning held near, we know in our hearts there is nothing to fear.

The crowd buzzed with energy, restless, elated, No balls getting deflated-just spirals well weighted. Old ghosts of one yard tried to whisper at night, But rain turns to thunder when the HawKs take to flight.

Tomorrow we rise-now let’s finish the fight🏈! “

“SEA!”
