22nd Annual Pacific Northwest Brew Cup Festival is fast approaching. We've got IPAs, pilsners, specialty ales, and also blondes & lagers in our lineup.

If you're curious about our more approachable beers, check out the listing below:
Vienna Lager | Lucky Envelope Brewing – our Vienna-style Lager pays respect to the 19th century Austrian beer which made its way to the US via a fascinating trip through Central America. Pouring a gorgeous amber-red, this highly drinkable lager greets you with notes of lightly sweet malt and toasted bread, finishing with a clean bitterness. Most recently, the Vienna Lager was awarded a gold medal at the 2020 Best of Craft Beer Awards (5.1%)
Stoic Black Lager | Sisu Beer – A dark American Lager with hints of chocolate and coffee (5.2%)
Honey Orange Lager | Sisu Beer – A lagered wheat beer that’s crisp and refreshing in color with bold notes of blood orange and a hint of honey (5.5%)
African Amber Ale | Mac & Jack’s Brewing Co. – This beer erupts with a floral, hoppy taste, followed by a well-rounded malty middle, finishing with a nicely organic hop flavor. Locally sourced two row grain and a blend of specialty malts give our amber its rich taste. Further complexity is achieved by leaving the beer unfiltered, providing exceptional flavor, as well as giving our amber its unique “cloudy” look. Lastly, they dry hop with locally grown, Yakima valley hops creating what has become the original, cult classic, northwest amber ale (5.8%)
’67 Blonde Lager | Public Coast Brewing Co. – Everyone’s got a favorite year. For us, it’s 1967, the year Oregon boldly decided our beaches belong to everyone. We know—totally awesome! So, we revisited the freewheeling namesake and style to bring you the ’67 Blonde Lager. (5.0%)
