Beer as a force for good.
Hopworks was founded in 2007 by our Brewmaster, Christian Ettinger. He started brewing in his parent’s kitchen during his first summer break in college and it didn’t take long to decide he would open his own brewpub.
With locally-sourced, organic and Salmon-Safe hops, our 20-barrel brewery produces 10,000 barrels of beer per year for our two brewpubs, airport brewpub, and for distribution throughout Cascadia and beyond. From composting to salvaged materials, and pervious pavers to hand dryers, we’ve made every effort to protect our planet with thoughtful alternatives to the status quo.

Can from Total Wine in Vacaville, CA. Pours clear bright gold with a white head. Aroma is light honey notes over pale malt. Med body. It's not really sweet, but not very bitter either. Honey seems to be the main flavor. Some light grassy herb seems to provide a little bitterness. Actually good flavor for what it is - blonde ale.

On Tap Clear deep golden pour with a thick dense off-white head. A little light toasted malts, mild smooth subtle clean malts. i suppose a touch of the claimed tangerine. Lacking much hop character. Not sure I would call it "Ferocious"
