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 Fort George, pours a deep dark amber brown with a small tan head. Aroma brings out notes of espresso grounds. Flavour is earthy and coffee-dominated. Light on the palate, with a roasty finish. Enjoyable stuff. Very good.

On tap at Fort George, pours an opaque a deep dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma is on the malty side, with bready caramel malt. Flavour is similar, with dry bready malt and not much of a hop content. Dry and malty, with a decent balance. Rather boring but decently made.

On tap at Fort George, pours a hazy pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of floral hops, not a whole lot else. Flavour is rather unusual, with fruity floral hops and a touch of nuttiness. Very nice stuff, a little unusual but the flavours are cohesive. Nice one.

On tap at Fort George, pours a hazy pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of elderflower, as well as coriander and floral notes. Flavour is soft on the palate, again with notes of elderflowers and coriander, very floral as well. Very solid Belgian wit that drinks easily.

On tap at Fort George, pours access pale golden with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of corn. Flavour is smooth, with notes of corn, grass and a decent hop kick at the end. Decent lager, but nothing I'd ever drink.

On tap at PreFunk. An extra dose of hops almost takes this into black IPA territory. Smooth and slick, slippery, oily. Small been he head, aroma is mostly roast grains and burnt toast. Taste kicks in with some hops bite, more roastiness.
