Sasquatch Brewing

About

We make our beer, cider, and food with as much love and care as we possibly can. For us, that means fresh and local ingredients, warm and welcoming service, and a commitment to the city where we grew up. How lucky are we to be here in Portland? Making beer from the best water on this earth. Pressing cider apples grown in the most fertile soil imaginable. Serving food grown on farms just miles from our restaurants. We are constantly inspired by the woods and water and people of our home state. We’ve been fishing, hiking and camping in Oregon since we were born, and Sasquatch has become a love letter to the things we care about. We have developed a wide network of relationships with local farmers – not just for the meat, dairy and produce we offer at our restaurants, but for raw ingredients for our beer and cider, spent grain removal for cows and pigs, even for the wood we used for our table tops. We know how intimately we are all connected here in this state, and how important it is to spend our money and our time in ways that help our friends, neighbors and purveyors. The same philosophy informs everything we do here. Rather than spend money on traditional ads or marketing campaigns, we made the decision long ago to focus on a hyper-local commitment to supporting schools and charities in our area. Even though people across the river may be completely unaware of us, we have a fierce and dedicated customer base in our backyard. That kind of loyalty is priceless. Along the way, we’ve donated tens of thousands of dollars to local schools and non-profits. This is all a long way to say that community matters. We always thought of Sasquatch as a metaphor for something secret and rare and precious. Compassion, kindness, love for your neighbor, being from here – sometimes it seems like these things are becoming endangered. But don’t worry we aren’t going extinct, we’re just hiding in our neck of the woods.
