First off I liked the place. And when the train thunders by (tracks are maybe 10' away) grab your glass and pretend your on a roller coaster! Overall the beer was above average, some of the lighter stuff was meh. The barleywine and the stout were the standouts. I tried everything to get a bottle of their barleywine to take home, but it didn't happen. Guess I'll have to head back.
What I didn't like was one of the waitresses. Everyone else there was awesome, even the person that had to fill in for our waitress when she went on an unannounced break... I ordered something that was supposed to have gorgonzola, it had blue cheese instead. It was still good but when I asked about it bitchy waitress said, "We don't serve blue cheese, that’s why you're wrong." What about the blue cheese burger on the menu... /end rant.
In summary, if you like beer give, the place a try. I’m defiantly heading back soon!

Skagit Brewery
Skagit Brewery visit was a result of a day trip to go look at a car. Interesting building, more of a restaurant with a small bar off to the side. The brewery was in the same building/floor and was divided with large glass panes. Old rustic construction, lots of old posters, piano's, tricycles, and misc stuff made focusing on the present party difficult.
The beer was less impressive.
We drank all of a sampler, which consisted of all of their beers including the barleywine. The only beers to note were the Barleywine, Scullers IPA, and the Trumpeter Stout. Both were excellent beers. Enough so that I bought some stout to take home for later consumption. I'm not giving up on them yet, but further analysis is required.
