Description
Pendleton, Oregon. A small agricultural town located at the foothills of the beautiful Blue Mountains. And now home to some of the best beers in the state. We’re passionate about fermentation and it shows in our brews. Whether it’s a dry-hopped Northwest IPA or a malt-heavy Porter, the Prodigal Son is dedicated to exploring the possibilities of grain, hops and yeast. Creativity is something we value in our Ales and it’s our goal to incorporate regional ingredients into beers that go beyond convention. Brewing to style is not our objective; we prefer to focus our explorations on the potential of beer.

But we’re more than just brewing, we’ve got good food to boot. The Prodigal Son features a menu that combines traditional pub fare with scratch cooking. Here you will find regional ingredients incorporated into handcrafted cuisine. We have a bona fide chef with an artist’s muse- and his work is truly the product of inspiration. Our food is unique –you might even say it has character.

We’re proud to be back home, here in Eastern Oregon. Come visit anytime, and stay as long as you like. We hope you will join us on our journey to beervana. Lucky for you, your efforts will be rewarded with good beer.

Draft at brewery. Slick and tart, yeast elements in the background. Still feels like a Saison, even after the pucker.

Draft at brewery. Average pour and aroma lead into a nice snappy taste, with zesty, spicy finish. Silky body rounds out this nice Saison.

Draft at brewery. In this case the lemon wedge adds a bit of flavor to an other wise pedestrian ale. Hazy golden body, wispy head, berries eventually make themselves known.
