Olympia, Yauger Park

Hey guys, I'm playing in a charity softball tournament this weekend in Olympia at Yauger Park. It starts early Saturday morning and ends Sunday afternoon.

I'm staying overnight Saturday at the Red Lion (looks like it's a little east of the park) rather than driving back and forth from Everett. I'm looking for ideas on good places to eat and/or hang out in the area that night (any good microbreweries?).

Any suggestions from people familiar with the area? I haven't spent any time down there since my brother was attending Evergreen State about 18 years ago, and I wasn't 21 at the time, so my experiences were geared more towards underage stuff then.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Odd info note: Yauger Park was designed not only as a park, but also to serve as a stormwater retention pond during storms. I always thought it just flooded everytime it rained.
