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.

Sampled at SAVOR. Poured a hazy amber color, small white head. Aroma was hoppy, pine, and a bit earthy perhaps? I wouldn’t quite say vegetable hop, but yeah... Flavor was pretty flavorful citrus hops, tasty, with the alcohol in this one at 7.5%, it was almost completely hidden.

On tap at Bailey’s Taproom’s Third Anniversary Barrel Aged Fest. Pours out a cloudy amber/orange topped with a tan head. Aroma was of light sour notes, sweetness, pit fruit, honey, and some wood. Taste was more of the sweetness and the light funk. Like a couple of other reviews said I don’t know if the funk was suppose to be there or not.
