Located on 4600 Leary Way, in Seattle's Ballard neighborhood, Giddy Up Burgers & Greens asks you to rethink the beer and burger pairing.

The rules are simple:
A Giddy Up burger is paired against 5 different beers, from the host brewery. Additionally, someone from the brewery will be available to speak about their beers and answer any questions.

All that's asked of you, is pick any burger (or request a suggestion) from Giddy Up's menu plus 1 type of French Fry, before being served a select pint of the host brewery's beer, as well as enjoy 4 (4oz) samples of additional beers from the brewery.

Those who suffer from lack of enthusiasm probably won't enjoy burgers like the "Stuffed Pig", a burger described as a "1/3 lb bacon stuffed patty, slice of cheddar cheese, lettuce, pickle, tomato, onion, bacon & Giddy Up sauce. Served on a house bun.". Other menu items include a Quinoa burger (aka, "City Slicker"), a "Sloppy Joe", and of course their signature "Giddy Up Burger" (made with "1/3 lb patty, bacon, pepperjack cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickled jalapeños & fire sauce. Served on a house bun).

Here's an example of an event, coming soon.
