News & Notes
How Whiskey Won Western Washington Presented by Becky Garrison
Washington has a tortured history with liquor. Efforts to ban or restrict it began before the region even attained statehood, with blue laws remaining on the books well into the twentieth century. Delve into the legends and the outliers responsible for this illicit and unsavory business of booze that emerged as a respectable multimillion-dollar craft spirits industry. Author Becky Garrison focuses on the players who plied their trade in the Greater Seattle region.
