Established in 1997
Caldera Brewing Company was incorporated March 12, 1996. The first brew was July 4, 1997 and the first keg sold was August 28, 1997. Caldera is distributed by Summit Beverage in Southern Oregon and Point Blank Distributing in Portland, Eugene, Bend and the Oregon Coast area.
For the first eight years, Caldera was draft only until June 2005 when the Pale Ale was put into cans. In 2007 the IPA was added to the can line up and in 2008 the Ashland Amber became the third flavor to can. In 2013, Caldera added Lawnmower Lager and Pilot Rock Porter to its can lineup. Caldera is the first micro brewery in the State of Oregon to brew and can its own beer.

Hoppy aroma of light malt, caramel, citrus, light tropical fruits. Flavour is hoppy and fruity with a medium bitter aftertaste. A very straightforward but tasty APA.

Aroma of malts, caramel, molasses, (blood) orange, brown sugar, hints of chocolate. Flavour is sweet caramel, sugary sweetness. Decent Belgian Strong Ale, I wish the orange flavours were a bit more pronounced.

From tap at BeerTemple, Amsterdam. Aroma of malt, biscuit, ripe orange, caramel. Flavour is light to moderate sweet with a moderate to medium bitter finish. More malty and less fruity than I had hoped.

From tap at Little Delirium, Amsterdam. Nutty aroma with chocolate, dark malt, caramel, ripe red fruits, cold coffee, not much coconut. Flavour is medium sweet with a little bitterness. Body is medium, feels a bit thin for the aroma. Nice Porter, wish this were fuller with more coconut though.
