Description
Fort George Brewery + Public House sits on the original settlement site of Fort Astoria, founded in 1811. The oldest US settlement west of the Rockies, Fort Astoria was the Pacific Fur Company's primary trading post in the Northwest. Fort George opened its doors to Astoria as both a brewery and a public house, and that desire to serve the community continues to this day. The brewers and pub staff here share a common goal, to create a welcoming space where anyone in town can pull up a stool and enjoy a pint and a bite to eat. We take pride in our house-made offerings and our hospitality, and we’re always looking for improvements that bring us one step closer to perfection. It’s a goal Sisyphus could appreciate, even if he doesn’t have as much fun pushing that rock as we do rolling those kegs. And that’s why we like to call Fort George beer the best beer you’ve had today. Tomorrow it will only be better.

On tap at Chuck’s Seward Park, pours a lightly hazed blonde with a small white head. Aroma is dank and tangy, with lots of piney hops, tangy white wine notes from the Nelson, moderate pot-like dankness, and a crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is bright and assertive, with potent dank hops, plenty of pine, some white wine tanginess, and a crisp biscuity malt underside. Dank, piney, tangy, bitter finish. Elite westie.

On tap at Chuck’s Greenwood, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma has soft toasted malt, earthiness, and some dry breadiness. Flavour is dry, with dry, hearty oats, and toasted malt. Not much malt depth but clean and inoffensive. It’s okay.

Gold body with thin white head. Pleasant hop aroma, citrus and herb. Full hoppy taste, pleasant and tasty. All over tongue lasting finish.

I doubt it was 2024, but it was a WC IPA 3-Way with Brujos and Ghost Town. Gold colour, bright, no head. Minty, herbaceous hop nose, lots of bitterness, clean balanced malt, some berry notes.

On tap at Elizabeth Station, pours black with a small brown head. Aroma has rich roasted malt, plenty of bourbon, and maybe a hint of the peaches if I look for it. Flavour is extremely intense, with super syrupy peach juice, bourbon, dark sugars and some roast. Way too surupy—I assume that’s the peaches, but maybe it’s the base. Over the top sweet and sticky. Good but far from drinkable.

OAmber, with a slight haze. The aroma has a lot of that citrus peel, maybe allspice. On the palate it’s pretty spicy, light toffee, alcohol, and again some of that citrus peel comes into the finish. It’s got decent balance. Not the best idea bit decent execution nonetheless.

16 oz. bottle, pours a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma is rather subdued for all the shit in here, with toasted nuts, Xmas spices, and bready caramel. Flavour is rather soft, with bready caramel, maybe some toasted chestnuts, oxidation, and a touch of citrus peel. Jumbled and incoherent but there’s obviously a decent base. It’s okay.
