Let’s explore Astoria, Oregon’s beer scene.

Astoria, Oregon Top Breweries - The best breweries in Astoria, Oregon.
Hello everyone and welcome back to another JK's Adventure. We are back on the Oregon Coast. This time we are doing something a little different. Not drinking beer, that is normal. Instead we are reviewing our favorite breweries in the awesome coastal town of Astoria, Oregon.

Buoy Brewing
Here, one of the West’s most relentless rivers meets the wilderness of an entire ocean. The unstoppable meets the unyielding. And here, a community with grit and backbone make that meeting work.
The river that built a town is home for building this beer. A place where hard work and hustle matter; where the local color has seen a little weather; where the newest generation wasn’t born yesterday.
This is beer with history to it; a story to unfold, a tale to be told. Brewed from this confluence of pride and place. New beer, with a few centuries under its belt. Beer you can savor and share. Made of a few pure ingredients and a whole lot of local flavor.
Just like the town it comes from.

Fort George Brewery
Founded in March 1811 by Captain Jonathan Thorn, Astoria was the Pacific Fur Company’s primary trading post in the Pacific Northwest. Astoria was renamed Fort George after King George III while under temporary British Authority during the war of 1812. At over 200 years, Astoria is the oldest American settlement west of the Rockies.
Since its inception, Astoria has been battered with a series of fires and industry collapses. In 2007 Fort George Brewery + Public house was established. Even though Sweet Virginia (our small batch brewery) was just a wee lady, she helped bring some of the thrum of hard work back to this pocket of the city.
In 1924 the Fort George Building was erected on the original settlement site of Fort Astoria, operating as an automotive repair shop through the early 1990’s. Briefly abandoned and sadly neglected, the Fort George Building has been revitalized and is now home to the Blue Scorcher Bakery and Fort George Brewery + Public House.

Reach Break Brewing
Forged in the spirit of the Pacific Northwest, emerged Reach Break Brewing. From humble beginnings on a kitchen stove top to a cutting-edge commercial brewery, we have grown by utilizing the highest quality Northwest ingredients and being patient with our yeast. Reach Break Brewing will always prioritize creativity and quality over corporate production schedules.

Astoria
Set 17 miles north on the mighty Columbia River, Astoria is a storied port city noted for its history, culture and - in recent years - craft beer.
The Wet Dog Café & Brewery holds the title of Astoria’s oldest brewery; this waterfront pub was founded by Astoria Brewing Company, the oldest brewery operation in town. And while they’re known for their brews - like the Trolley Stop Stout and Old Red Beard Amber - they’re kid- friendly, too. Their menu includes starters, salads, burgers, seafood and brats. There’s even a patty for the pup.
One of the newest additions to the Astoria pub scene is Buoy Beer, which just happens to be housed in one of the oldest settings on the banks of the mighty Columbia River. And, wow, what a stunning view!
“We’re in the old Bornstein fish hatchery with the water right underneath us,” says co-owner Dave Kroening. We just opened the front of the building with cascading windows and doors. On a nice day, we slide them open. The ships come right by.”
Of course the setting is only part of the reason locals flock here.
The brewery specializes in balanced northwest ales and traditional lagers, while the pub menu centers around local seafood with unique offerings like buoy oysters, pan-fried with jalapeno jelly and goat cheese pearls.
“Obviously, we have great food and great beer, but it’s the experience, too,” says Kroenig. “Our guests can see what Astoria is all about, from the sea lions to the fishing boats to the big container ships passing by.”

We love Fort George. Astoria is one of our favorite coastal towns.

[@adventuresofjandk]

Ours as well.

[@youlikemyshorts8039]

Who doesn’t love great craft beer?

[@adventuresofjandk]

Good question. 😂

[@Idahovandal4ever]

Astoria is always out of our way when we visit the Oregon coast, but next time for sure! Thanks guys!

[@adventuresofjandk]

It doesn’t have the ocean views as other Oregon Coast towns but it makes up for it with its history and quaintness. We love visiting.

[@adventuresofjandk]

Hope you all enjoy our latest adventure. Be safe.

[@pnwoutdoorlife2720]

We Love Astoria Brewing Company. Good foot and beer and they allow dogs. We’re camping at Ft Stevens again next weekend. Can’t wait.

[@adventuresofjandk]

Lucky you. We love Ft. Stevens. Hopefully we too will be back there soon. We have a couple leaks getting repaired next week and then will be back on the road again. Safe travels.

[@seann6061]

Appreciate the video. We watched this before and after our trip. Agree 100%

[@adventuresofjandk]

Thank you so much.

[@bryantakayama2154]

I love Astoria! Use to visit there 2 to 3 times a year before the pandemic. Nice video and great to see you back on the OC.

[@adventuresofjandk]

Thank you Bryan. We really appreciate the support. All the best.

[@JasonRenfrow]

What a cool town. The fact the Goonies was filmed there is awesome just in itself

[@adventuresofjandk]

Ya as someone who grew up a Goonie it’s always fun to relive some of moments driving through town.

[@haftacmp1_]

We haven't tried all those Brewery's in Astoria. We'll have to get up there soon!

[@adventuresofjandk]

As you can see there are plenty to choose from. Best part they are all great for different reasons.

[@oliverjh1281]

My kind of town good beer good food 👌

[@adventuresofjandk]

Exactly. It is hard to beat. So many great spots along the Coast.

[@mysticrosehealings]

Loved your tour! You found some great spots were going to try out! Thank you!

[@adventuresofjandk]

Our pleasure. Glad you enjoyed it. Such a cool town.

[@kimberlyrenfrow461]

For anyone looking for a great place to camp near Astoria, check out Fort Stevens State Park. It is less than 10 miles from these awesome breweries. Campfires and craft beer go together like peanut butter and jelly. 💞💞

[@adventuresofjandk]

Great point. Fort Stevens is a fantastic State Park.

[@joelavenburg5761]

Looks like a nice place to visit. A lot of old shipwrecks in the area from what I've heard.

[@adventuresofjandk]

Hi Joe. You are exactly right. Ft. Stevens State Park is just a few minutes south and has a ship wreck that has been there since 1906. Every year it gets smaller and smaller though which is too bad.

[@TheEvergreens]

Ok this is right up our alley! We've never been to Oregon but a brewery tour in a place with amazing views...sounds absolutely amazing! Thanks for the realness of your reviews. We really appreciate that. You guys have a cool thing going for you!

[@adventuresofjandk]

You have to find a way to visit. The Oregon Coast is magnificent. You won’t want to leave. 😂

[@tomschmitt6911]

Haha Rogue @ Pier #39 kicks ass over all of those....! yall apparently arent true beer people.

[@adventuresofjandk]

Ha I guess not. Worst brewery in all of Oregon in my opinion but hey I’m not really a true beer drinker. Thanks for watching.
