For Rogue, Green Dragon Brewing is a unique project and opportunity to connect with, contribute to, and learn from Portland’s thriving homebrewing community.
For the homebrewing community, Green Dragon Brewing is a unique opportunity for local homebrewers to help design and brew a recipe that will be brewed on the nano brewing equipment at the Rogue Eastside Pub & Pilot Brewery. Emphasis is placed on educational aspects of recipe formulation, all-grain brewing techniques, quality control, and marketability. In addition, we hope to further improve the link between commercial craft breweries, their patrons, and the homebrewing community, and attract new homebrewers, while at the same time producing unique and exceptional beers.
In nearly ten years of operation, the Green Dragon brewing program has produced over 400 batches, hosted over 100 homebrewers, and held weekly release nights at Rogue Eastside Pub & Pilot Brewery in Southeast Portland.

Brewed by Todd Beach on the large system at Green Dragon, served on draft on the Back 30. Staff recommendation. Clear golden color, slid white head, great lacing. Aroma of hay, yeast and pad thai without the shrimp. Taste had a unique savory spice combination, probably with cumin, sage, coriander. Worth trying.

This was described to us as an unoaked base beer that Rogue uses to blend with, but I can’t recall what the final Rogue product is. At any ratem this was on draft in the Back 30 at Green Dragon. It was hazy brown with a thick cream-colored head. Aroma was licorice and taste was similar. Interesting stuff, tasty enough for me to want to seek out whatever the oaked and blended version is.
