Decent beers. They dont have their checkout system tight. They have overcharged several times. And I recently had a sour that had phenolic off-flavors, told them, and he (owner) just said others like it and still charged me for a 1/3rd drunk glass. read more

They had about 30 choices the last time we were in. Many imperials and barrel aged choices. My wife likes red ales, and they have those too. No food available, but they encourage you to bring food in. There's Vietnamese next door and Mexican across the street. Just down the block is Italian. (All of them have great Yelp reviews BTW) And they have their menus. So you can sip your beer, place an order, pick it up and bring it back. The staff is super friendly too. read more

Becoming my summer happy place. They still have the HB banner and it's always fun to walk into a local place knowing you have been to the HB in Munich a few times. read more

Quaint little location and any brewery that has crafted ale I will be dropping in. Anything just to cool off. We were traveling by and I could not help myself to go inside. Really relaxed atmosphere and the locals are lovely. We found ourselves enjoying our brew before our next stop. Stellar Service! They offer a wide selection and with reasonable prices. We love it! read more

The Hoppy Brewer - Breweries Near Me - Gresham, Oregon

Wonderful spot for the beer fan in your life!! We met up with friends here our last day in Oregon, and it was a great choice, even for the "lesser" beer fan who's married to Mr. Beer FANATIC!! Beautiful Saturday afternoon in downtown Gresham, with the Farmers Market in full swing across the street (AWESOME!!). We got a table outside and enjoyed a great sampling of something for just about EVERYONE, including several tasty Porters for me and the Mr. LOVED his IPA choices. Great service, and a nice spot to spend a few hours hanging with friends. Inside, they also have brewing supplies and other beer-related goodies. No food, but we ordered apps. from the burger place next door (yum!!) Cool place in a great downtown location!! read more

Huge selection of beers with some ciders and a kombucha or two thrown in. They don't really have much in the way of food unless you really like Sun Chips but the restaurant next door will bring food out to the beer garden in between the two buildings. The beer garden is the best though and we stop here after a 11+ mile bike ride from Portland. It's covered and heated and dog friendly. It is an added bonus that the staff is friendly and they will add CBD to any beer for $3. read more

Love this cute place. Local brewery lots to choose from bottle and on tap. Games to play while sitting and hanging out. Bring food in and make a night of it read more

i thoroughly enjoyed this place. we were passing through gresham after a hike and decided we wanted somewhere to stop for a beer and bite to eat. they don't serve food but there's a few restaurants off main street that you can get food from and bring there which is convenient. the place is clean & aside from serving beers for there & to go, they also serve a bunch of brewing supplies which i thought was really cool. the beer selection is pretty decent but nothing super crazy i had never heard of but i still enjoyed what i had. i love the outdoor area and its very nicely socially distanced so you can enjoy and feel safe during covid times. overall i enjoyed the place a lot and would go back again if i were in the area. read more

Our experience at The Hoppy Brewer last week was far better than we anticipated. I think the first reason was because I don't venture out to Gresham all that often (read: never). We were pleasantly surprised to see downtown Gresham actually has a nice area with a lot of shops and restaurants. The 2nd (and more important) reason is that these guys know beer. They know beer and they know people. We told the bartender it was our first time in and and he was super personable and just started telling us everything about the place. His name was Benjamin. They operate on a first name basis and I like that. This is a one-stop-shop for all your homebrew needs. They also have their own brewery brand called Krauski's. And of course they have a bar and bottleshop to boot. They had something like 25-30 taps with a couple of them sporting their in-house beers. You can get a taster tray of small 3 oz glasses 5 for $8 or a pint which usually ranged from $5-$7 depending on the ABV. They don't have food but you can bring in your own. There are plenty of restaurants including the Local Cow next door who will deliver. read more

Beer garden! Nice combo! It's a place where you can buy ingredients to make your own beer, or where you can purchase some unusual beers you might not find in a grocery store. They don't serve food but they don't mind if you order from Local Cow next door. They will even deliver it right over to you. You can also just bring your own food into the garden area. They don't mind. And then on a sunny day, you can head yourself outside and sit for a spell while you drink your hoppy brew. And you can bring your dog! read more

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $116 to fill my 20lb CO2 bottle. Yes that's right $116 . I thought I would give them my business instead of going to a large company (Air Gas). I pay $23 at Air Gas NOT $116. They told me $116 after they filled it and told me they cannot take it back because it was already in my bottle. I almost fell over!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you look online, it cost from $12-$39 to fill a 20lb bottle with CO2. $39 is crazy high BUT $116. That is robbery. read more

The only place in gresham with a very good and wide selection of all kinds of beers. They really do beer right! And they are friendly .

Good burgers and fries with a brewhouse nextdoor. What more can you ask for? Sit on the patio between the two and have a Local Cow burger and fries and a couple craft beers from the Hoppy Brewer ... HOOAH! I had a cheeseburger with bacon and sauteed onions. It came with fries which were paltry and uninspiring. My friends had a burger and Mount Hood Wedge and we got some beers from the adjacent Hoppy Brewer. The Hoppy Brewer had some nice drafts, but the Porter from the fridge at less than $5 a pint was awesome and $5 well spent. They were knowledgable and helpful, delivering quality brews at reasonable prices. The brews from the Hoppy Brewer sealed the deal, otherwise this would have been a 5 or 6 bomb experience.

The staff here is friendly and knowledgable. The indoors table area is a little cramp. Although they have a nice beer garden, but It's Oregon. I usually just drop in for a growler fill. Many great beers on tap. Growlers filled. Tons of bottled beer. They have a $2 cork/cap fee on bottled beers consumed on site. read more

Having a great time at hoppy! Great blonde beer. Back again with Bronwynn. Always something good here.

We love the Hoppy Brewer! The owner and his staff are super knowledgeable and friendly. Check out Thursdays when they often have a "guest tap" where the reps come in and give samples. Just a really cool place to have a beer and enjoy the moment! Cheers! read more

This is my favorite spot in downtown Gresham for great beer and service! All of the staff is very knowledgeable and give the best customer service! Amber & Christy go above and beyond with their customer service though. They always have a positive attitude, are great to have conversations with, and even let me show them photos of my cat! Oh and Steve the owner picks the best breweries to feature during their Thursday night beer tastings! Definitely recommend! read more

Great little tap house where you can bring in your own food (or order from Local Cow next door). Great selection of draft beers, ciders, occasionally mead, or something from their refrigerators pretty much guarantees that they'll have something you'll like. read more

Went in expecting to buy brewing supplies, left empty handed. I guess the only person attending a multi purpose store is trapped behind the bar? Made solid eye contact with her for 5+ seconds, no indication I was going to be helped any time in the next hour, continued to pour beer for people that came in after we did. Looks like I'll just purchase everything I need online for less money. Frustrating. read more

Awesome spot to get a beer in Gresham. The space is definitely small so if you plan to go on music nights get there early! Staff is friendly and even remembered me after my first time there. Also the beer selection is amazing, tons of taps, usually changing pretty often. They also a cute patio area that I will be thoroughly enjoying this summer! read more

Can I just start out by saying "THANK YOU" to The Hoppy Brewer!!! Not only do you have a WONDERFUL tap selection - apparently - you also have home brewing supplies!!!??!!! Thank you for NOT having EVERY TAP a crappy IPA or other "Beer-Vana" swill that most of the pubs & breweries serve in the greater PDX area!!! Thank you for serving Belgium, German, Stout & Porter styles. We APPRECIATE you serving (MY all-time FAV!) Weihenstephaner VITUS!!! It was rated THE BEST BEER IN THE WORLD in 2009... While you do have some hoppy taps, you have devoted ample pour-space to other options. While we were there, we tried: Quadrophenia, Ovila Abby Quad, Vollbier Helles, Hell Pony Maibock, and the Artic Devil Barley Wine. While some of our choices were better than others in taste, complexity and body, all were excellent choices. The cost of these beers are a little more on the pricey side ($5 - $9.50 per pour) - but you get what you pay for!!! We also had some peanuts...WHICH I THOUGHT WERE COMPLIMENTARY.....SURPRISE!!! The (rather small!) bowl of peanuts is $2. What also made this an enjoyable experience was the fact that you could order food from the neighbor The Local Cow and eat on the patio in the middle (FYI: THERE ARE NO KIDS ALLOWED in the patio area). The staff is friendly & knowledgeable, the place is fresh, clean and well-managed!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND The Hoppy Brewer & The Local Cow. I also look forward to many more date-nights in the future with my husband!!! P.S. To the people who have reviewed AND complained about the TABLES NOT BEING CLEANED and WAITED ON IN THE BEER GARDEN.... Order at the counters (in either place!!!) eat/drink in the middle AND BUS YOUR OWN DAMN TABLES!!!! Neither place is here to be subservient to you or your needs!!! Get off your ass and stop treating everyone like they are your servants!!! Rate the places on their food & beverages - not on how well you've been treated and how quickly you were acknowledged! read more

Walked through the Gresham Arts Festival on Saturday and my husband couldn't wait to get a cold beer at the Hoppy Brewer. It was a warm afternoon and two of the outside tables were occupied, the rest hadn't been cleaned. We sat down anyway, assuming with the Art Festival, they would come by any time to keep those tables clean. After 10 minutes, no one came by to clean the table or ask us for our order, so we moved inside hoping it would be better. No such luck. Waited another 10 minutes (silly us!) and still no one even acknowledged us. In the words of my husband, this is "A Miss" on their part. As busy as the downtown Gresham area was that day, you would have thought they would have loved to have all that business. Guess not! There were two guys standing at the counter on the supply side and one guy on the beer side, all standing around chatting. We walked across the street to the Billy Bob's patio area and had a beer within 5 minutes. Sorry Hoppy Brewer...doesn't feel like you want our business! read more

I can't even drink beer (gluten) but I still love this place. They started as a brewing supply shop and still very much are but have quickly become a wonderful little hangout for a pleasant sip or two in a much more personable atmosphere than a traditional bar. The beer garden is relaxing, set off the quaint main drag of downtown Gresham. The tables inside are a bit cramped and fill up quick but it's starting to feel like the kind of small town place were you could strike up a great conversation with a stranger so the coziness isn't really a bother. Just get there early if it's raining because there's very limited seating indoors. My boyfriend loves the ever rotating on tap offers and the coolers full of at least 100 bottled choices that can be consumed in-house or taken to go. The owner is very passionate about great beer and knows his stuff. He always seems to be available to answer questions and does a great job of making the rounds to make sure everyone is happy with their choices. The cooler has a good selection of ciders and at least one gluten free beer and there are always several nice wine selections for us wheatophobes. There's no food, but they're more than happy to let you bring in takeout from one of the many eateries within spitting distance. The BF and I have done this more than once, especially on nights where we couldn't agree where to eat, so we'd order takeout separately and bring it over here to enjoy together with a drink. I can't explain why this is so fun, but there's something different and adventurous about it. They even seem to have an arrangement with The Local Cow next door that allows their wait staff to bring food right over. The Hoppy Brewer definitely makes me happy! read more

Love the feel/vibe of the place. We came in to fill our growlers and David the staff was so knowledgeable and helped us figure out what we wanted according to taste. Love the Hopigon and Deschutes. Extremely informative in helping us set up our home brewing. read more

We stumbled on the place while eating next door at the Local Cow. One business doesn't have a alcohol license, one doesn't serve food, so they work together. We ordered food at the Local Cow, then came over to the Hoppy Brewer and ordered our drinks. The food was brought over when it was ready. Worked awesome. Really good beer list, but wished they had more local beers. read more

I visited the Hoppy Brewer today. I am from Colorado where we have hundreds of breweries and tap rooms. I was extremely impressed with the beer selection (28 on tap) and even something for the kids.... a great root beer. It is a very nice, clean place with cool decor. They even have a room with brewing supplies for the Home brewer. The owner was there and recommended some of their own craft brews. Very personable and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!! read more

This place has wonderful staff and a great selection of rotating beverages. I drink cider and my boyfriend drinks beer and we have always found something tasty. Bonus is you can order from surrounding restaurants and have them deliver. read more

They always have new beers, so I like to come and try the new ones. Everyone I've tried is at least good, but mostly they're closer to excellent. I honestly could never pick a favorite either, because they have so many selections that it would be like picking a favorite food of all the foods in the world. The staff is really friendly and helpful and can answer questions about the distinctions in the beers and techniques on home brewing. All their brews are made with the materials in their home brewing kits, so it's like getting a sense of what you could make at home (if you had their brewing expertise). I bought my first home brew kit here and honestly failed miserably, so I gave it as a Christmas gift to a buddy who loves to home brew. I wish they would do home brewing classes in the beer garden so I could learn. Until then, I'll continue to buy their ready-made beers. It's always better than what I could find somewhere else on tap or make myself, that's for sure. read more

Great beer selection I recommend the double chocolate stout. Excellent service, live music and you can grab a delicious burger next door and bring it in. read more

I wish I still lived in town. This place has evolved so much in the past few years, and keeps getting better and better! The beer selection is outstanding, I can't even express how nice it is to have a good selection of Belgian beers on tap, as well as ipas , stouts, porters, lagers, and everything else. I am so happy you guys have made it, and I am glad I got to watch you grow! read more

The Hoppy Brewer - Best selection of brewing supplies around! - Breweries Near Me - Gresham, Oregon

Killer selection of draft and bottled beers from craft breweries in Oregon!! As most know, there's a huge cult craft beer scene in Oregon. I'll be honest, this was my sixth trip to the Portland area and the first time I specifically sought out some of my favorite breweries and brewpubs. Prior visits have always been oriented around exploring all the wonderful Burgundian wine varietals in Willamette. However, this trip I wanted to try out some big name breweries as well as some of the hole-in-the-wall places, such as The Hoppy Brewer in the tiny little suburb of Gresham, OR. About a 20 minute drive east of Portland. They've got a few of their own brews on tap as well as rotating taps with tons of other Oregon beers and elsewhere. My personal favorite was the Workhorse IPA from Laurelwood Brewing Co. in Portland. If what's on draft doesn't suit your fancy, check out the stocked racks and fridges packed with bottles from just about every craft brewery around. They've also got a huge selection of hops/malts/barleys available for purchase in the adjacent beer store next door! I see why there's a huge cult beer scene going on here now. I don't have the foggiest idea of where to find a selection like they had here in LA. Just a note, they don't have any food here but you can order from the farm to market "The Local Cow" restaurant next door - they will even deliver it to your table at The Hoppy Brewer. read more

Kind of a beer snob from a taste aspect and definitely a food snob from all aspects. I can't say enough about this place and I won't write a book. They have excellent service and amazing beers. I enjoy the conversations with the staff and the customers. They kill it from all angles. Tonight was needed and Ben specifically brought some great conversation and service. I recommend everyone to come enjoy some beers here. Also, the fact you can bring local food in this place is awesome. read more
