No-Li Brewhouse has been crafting beer in the Northwest since 1993. Their branding pays homage to their love of Spokane and the region. Now, No-Li has put Spokane on the map as a major force in the world of craft brews. Earlier this week No-Li announced that they have gotten federal approval for a new style of craft beer. Spokane-Style.

What makes a beer Spokane-Style? Well, first off it must be brewed and packaged in Spokane. But the origin of the beer goes beyond that. To be classified as Spokane-Style all the ingredients must come from within 300 miles of the city. Naturally, all of No-Li beers fall under the category of Spokane-Style.

No-Li attributes its close to home ingredients for driving its demand in other areas of the country. Whole Foods carries it in Washington D.C. and the largest liquor stores in Colorado have started selling the brand as well. No-Li is on tap both at Safeco Field and Century Link Field in Seattle.

A downtown Colville landmark has gone missing, and the owner is none too happy about it.

The giant coffee mug in front of Talk-n-Coffee (119 East Astor Avenue) was stolen sometime between Dec. 26 and 27, according to owner Scott Sanders. The statue, which was fabricated by a retired, local metal worker, was more than three feet tall and appeared as a float in several community parades. The sculpture also had the Talk-n-Coffee logo on the side.

Sanders helped a friend with a project and as a favor the metal worker put the cup together to stand outside the shop since 2007.

“It's stood up to sun, torrential downpours and lots of snow,” Sanders said in a Statesman-Examiner report. “I would just really like it back so it can be in front of the shop where it belongs.”

Sanders said neighbors upstairs witnessed a red Ford half-ton pickup with a white canopy pull up, load the cup into the truck and take off. He has since been spreading the word about the theft around Colville.
