About
Oregon's First and Only B Corp Brewery. Founded in 2008.
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.

Very nice foam on a medium clear gold body. Good sweet hoppiness on the nose balanced by some chewy malts, soft biscuit. Flavour is a malty affair, chewy biscuit, slight hops to help sweeten it. Full finish, nice dry crispness. Enjoyable, I guess the USA Vancouver town likes malts more than the one up here.

16oz can from Brewers Haven. Amber body, light haze, patchy head. Aroma is caramel malts, pine, mint, spruce. Hops grab the palate instantly, bracing, tingly. Sweet caramel malts in the back ground, notes of spruce and juniper. Classic NW with a touch of hazy.

Very crisp and clear golden coloured body with a thick three centimetre tall off-white head that fades fairly quickly. Aroma of grass and citrus fruits with a dash of candy and additional sweetness from caster sugar. Light to Medium-bodied; Rich biscuity and slightly grainy malt notes dominate here with a touch of citrus fruits and a very light dose of grassy notes from the hops and showing some small alpha acid bitterness. Aftertaste is fairly sweet with some stone fruits and citrus fruits bringing sweetness, but mainly just a honey and caster sugar sweetness with a touch of pine and herbal notes with a good balance of malt, especially near the end. Overall, a decent IPA that shows some supportive fruit elements, but not really as hoppy as I would have expected or showing enough alpha acids to make this worthwhile, in a world of IPAs. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Trader Joe's in Bend, Oregon on 29-March-2021 for US$1,84 sampled in my hotel room here in Arcata, California on 31-March-2021 after touring the Redwoods with my familly.

12oz can from Boise Coop. Lightly cloudy golden pour, one finger foamy head. Hoppy aroma and taste. Going old school here, a nice throwback. Full, thick malt profile supports the woody, earthy, piney hops.

16oz can from Boise Coop. Dark, hazy golden pour with a two finger foamy head. Piney, earthy, dank aroma. Taste offers a glimpse of sweet malts before being erased by the tingly, zippy hop combo. Is hazy West Coast IPA a thing? This would seem to fit in that category.
