What Seattle's weather means for breweries
In Seattle, 7 months a year have average highs below 65°F, which keeps hoodies, crewnecks and beanies on the taproom shelf well beyond the holidays. The patio window, June to September, is short, so a tee and cap release is better timed to its start than held for the holidays. Cool, damp weather favors cotton fleece and beanies over thin tri-blends, and darker colors hide rain spots on staff shirts. The low dips to 32°F or colder on roughly 30 nights a year, so a hoodie that layers under a jacket sells well once the first freeze arrives, and patio staff need a warm layer for evening shifts. Rain peaks at roughly 5.8 inches in November, so a patio release that month needs a rain date or a covered spot by the door.

Ordering from Seattle
When should a taproom in Seattle lean on tees and caps instead of fleece?
Only in the short warm stretch. Fleece takes over from October to April, the months under 65°F, and a long sleeve covers the weeks between.
