Description
Pelican Brewing Company was born at the beach in Pacific City in 1996. Here, in front of a rundown old building at the water’s edge, stood three enthusiastic young folks whose thirst for great beer overshadowed their understanding of what it would take to build a brewery. They did it anyway. And now twenty years later, older, and wiser, Pelican Brewing Company is a craft beer industry leader with fans throughout the Northwest and around the world. Today we’ve taken our breweries and our values to other Oregon coastal towns where we wake up each day in a place that reminds us that amazing is possible. Cheers fellow fanatics. This is as good as it gets.

On tap at Pelican Pub and Brewery, Pacific City, OR. Pale gold, with thin white head. Some citrus aroma, although some cream in mouth. Then great hop finish. Extremely drinkable, like and English golden premium ale. I had it again at Basement Bar in Portland which was slightly blander and less hoppy.

Fairly clear medium golden colored body that holds an average sized white head. Fresh grapefruit and pine aroma come easily. Plenty of body delivers a well balanced, brew that ends with a long bitter finish. Very nice IPA. You need to drink one of these just to remind yourself that Cascades hops are still doing the job as well as any of the newer hop varieties and will be around for a while with good reason.

Golden orange IPA with a thin white head. Funkuy floral hops, very classic and pleasant, pinhey and coniferous. Im seeing tall sequoias. In mouth, refreshing casi-menthol, with floral hops, covering the mouth. Rich and complex. Like a clover field. Sampled with Mtl crew, April 16 2006.
