The Woods Tasting Room
Sharing a space in the south end of SODO, Seattle Cider and Two Beers Brewing are two popular brands that you’ve probably seen on tap at plenty of bars and restaurants across the region. With that said, we think the best pour is from the source at The Woods Tasting Room located at 4660 Ohio Avenue South.
