Description
Walking Man Brewing was established in 1999. Nestled in Stevenson, Washington near the Bridge of the Gods in the spectacular Columbia River Gorge, Walking Man Brewing began impacting the Northwest craft beer scene in late 2000. Garnering medals in some of the top beer competitions in the world, it has long since become a destination for beer enthusiasts and gorge travellers.

Our 17-barrel brewhouse has a single infusion mash tun, steam fired kettle and open fermenters. We brew old school, stirring every batch by hand. We produce roughly 1000 barrels each year and distribute along the I-5 corridor from the Puget Sound through Portland Oregon and throughout the Columbia Gorge region.

We welcome you to explore our neighborhood, connect with our community and enjoy a pint at our brewpub. Cheers!

2024 vintage. On tap at Walking Man, pours a fleas amber with a small beige bead. Aroma is full of rich resinous hops, big toffee, and sweet breast malt. Flavour is bitter as fuck, with truckloads of resinous hops, deep breast toffee, and red berry. Love how hoppy this is—classic American barley wine circa mid-2010s. Really nice that they brought this back.

On tap at Walking Man, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is full of bubblegumy esters, phenols, and cotton candy. Flavour is a little cleaner, with gentle bubblegumy esters, crisp biscuity malt, and light spiciness. Too estery, not spicy enough, not carbonated enough. Not bad for an American saison but still quite off the mark.

On tap at Walking Man, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of crystal malt—that’s a lot of caramel—with some resinous hops in back. Flavour is super old school, with resinous hops, bitter grapefruit peel, big caramel, and traces of diacetyl—or that could be the caramel. Not a big fan of this—too sweet, clumsy, and not totally cohesive. Alright.

On tap at Walking Man, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has crisp biscuity malt and subdued grassy hops. Flavour is pretty low on the hops but is at least crisp and dry. Clean and forgettable.
