About Hemlock State Brewing Co.
Hemlock State Brewing Co. is a brewery in Mountlake Terrace, Washington. Its website says three avid homebrewers started it as a hobby. The site says that hobby got a bit out of hand.
In 2015 the brewers moved from their kitchen to a converted garage in Shoreline and opened on Saturdays. The website says demand outgrew the garage. That led to the move to Mountlake Terrace.
The taproom welcomes all ages and well-behaved dogs, according to the website. Outside food is welcome too. Washington State liquor laws mean outside beverages cannot be consumed on site.
The site also lists a rotating selection of ciders, wine and non-alcoholic beers. Its tap list has grouped the beers into lighter beers, hoppy beers and others such as lagers and stouts. It is one of the most reviewed beer spots in Mountlake Terrace on this site.
