Bale Breaker Brewing Joins Forces with Yonder Cider for Future Ballard Taproom | Eater Seattle

"Based in Yakima, Bale Breaker has grown since opening in 2013—its Topcutter IPA and other beers have expanded to a wide retail presence across the Puget Sound region—and this partnership marks the family-owned brewery’s first fixed-location foothold in Seattle. I noted co-founder Meghann Quinn’s statement that, “We’ll bring the hops from Yakima, they’ll bring the apples from Wenatchee, and we’ll showcase the best of the east side of Washington to those on the west,” underscoring the collaboration’s focus on homegrown ingredients." - Gabe Guarente
