It is often the case that one's mental and emotional situation influences one's attitude towards external experiences. The same restaurant food could be terrible, or incredibly good, depending on what's going inside of you. Add to that the fact that your future experiences are colored by your history, and it gets ever more complicated.
In short, Elysian Brewery in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle provides Beer food, lots of freshly-brewed beers -- dozens of sours and IPA's and porters -- and a nice chill ambience to spend time with friends. It's not particularly pricey, not compared to the surroundings anyway, and the service is pretty decent. If you're looking for a brewery to go to, with dozens of beers on taps, this is a good place to go, for brunch as well as latenight drinks. It doesn't have a 'bar' vibe, not the 'hit people up and just talk to them' environment at all. More of a 'hang with friends, possibly maybe a first or pre-first date' vibe. Ideal for double dates, even. Good place.
I had an incredible time there, spent three hours there, sober for the first fifteen minutes maybe, so much beer, we got the tasting set and man their beers are strong. Most of them above seven or eight percent abv. Fun, good value for money if that's what one is after. The beer food is just...okay, but you're not there to eat, and they know it too.
That's all I got. This neighborhood's got a lot of breweries, this is the more popular one. Worth exploring at least once.
