To help kick off Erasmus the Renton Dragon’s hatching month, Downtown Renton put on the Dragon Pub Crawl, an annual event celebrating the city’s beloved rooftop dragon and the best spots in downtown Renton to get a pint or a cocktail.

On Sunday afternoon, April 2, participants checked in at Dubtown Brewing where they received their commemorative cups, drink and food vouchers and a map showing eleven stops throughout the pub crawl.

Participants in the pub crawl were able to get drinks from The Berliner, Dubtown Brewing Company, Four Generals Brewing, Puget Sound Cider Company, Rain City Market, Renton Civic Theatre, The Owl Room in Rubattino’s Restaurant, SipStop Café & Community Market, Uncle Mo’s Snappy Inn, Whistle Stop Ale House and a $10 gift card to the first 50 people to stop in at Premier Meat Pie, a new downtown eatery opening soon.

Folks also received vouchers for Liberty Café, The Rose Gift House & Coffee and The Brewmaster’s Taproom on Benson Road.
