Fort George Brewery

About

The Fort George Brewery + Public House was the original settlement site of Astoria founded in March 1811 by Captain Jonathan Thorn. In its heyday, Astoria was the Pacific Fur Company's primary fur trading post in the Northwest. Under temporary British authority it was renamed Fort George after King George the 3rd. In 1924 the Fort George Building was erected to house an automotive repair facility until the late 1990's. Briefly abandoned and sadly neglected, the Fort George building has been recently revitalized as a home to the Blue Schorcher Bakery and our brewpub. We are honored to play a part in the Fort and Astoria's renaissance.
