Electricity introduced AJ Wiltrout to Andy Gaine; beer kept them together. In February 2018, the electrician industry duo opened Caskcades beer bar and game room in downtown Puyallup pouring all styles while pinball machines supplied the soundtrack. The duo will be the first to claim it has been a roller-coaster ride but their community, families, staff, brewery nights, collaborations, and, well, the beer keeps them buckled in. The beer industry’s love for Wiltrout, Gaine and Caskcades remains steady. Tune-in to Grit & Grain Podcast Episode 68 to hear them discuss how they built Caskcades, re-tell the story of their cursed Midnight Sun barleywine, their thoughts on the industry, and their huge success partnering with Puyallup-Sumer Chamber of Commerce to host the annual Brewallup beer festival at the Western Washington fairgrounds.
