Top 5 / North America

The Columbia River Gorge runs between Oregon and Washington and its breweries speak to the best of Northwest culture. They’ve perfected the hoppy IPA and experiment regularly with farmhouse ales and other unique styles not seen at your average brewery. You should center a beer-focused trip to the region on Hood River, the largest town in the gorge.

 

Logsdon Ales

Logsdon Ales’ beers use organic ingredients and focus on farmhouse styles. Try them in the Hood River, Oregon taproom.

 

pFriem Family Brewers

pFriem Family Brewers has perfected a range of outstanding beers, from pale ales to wits to porters and beyond. Their restaurant in Hood River helps you pair great food with the beer.

 

Backwoods Brewing

Backwoods Brewing’s rustic taproom serves beer with pizza and sandwiches. A strong pecan pie winter ale is sure to warm you up this time of year, while lighter brews pair well with sunshine on the brewery’s patio.

 

Everybody’s Brewing

Everybody’s Brewing, where the name says it all. Approachable beers are the focus here, and every pint is eminently drinkable.

 

Thunder Island

Thunder Island, where you can enjoy outstanding gorge views and good food with your beer.
