Sunriver Brewing Company will celebrate the opening of its second pub in Central Oregon. The new pub, located in the Bakery Building at 1005 NW Galveston Ave includes seats for approximately 65 people inside plus another 50 on the outdoor patio.
The Galveston Pub will start off featuring nine of their craft beers including Vicious Mosquito IPA, Fuzztail Hefeweizen and other year round, seasonal and specialty brews. Consistently recognized for innovative and high quality food, Sunriver Brewing’s Galveston Pub will feature many well-known favorites as well as several new dishes.
Sunriver Brewing will continue to operate its popular pub in The Village at Sunriver which opened in July 2012. Sunriver Brewing was recently recognized as the People’s Choice at the 2015 Bend Brewfest and KLCC Brewfest.
“There are so many awesome breweries all over Oregon, particularly in our area,” says Brian Cameron, co-owner of the company. “We’re so grateful for the response we’ve received in the last couple years and really appreciate the support. It’s exciting to have an opportunity to do business in Bend,” says Cameron.
Other local acknowledgements include two consecutive wins as People’s Choice for best SMaSH (Single Malt and Single Hop) beer at Central Oregon Beer Week (single malt, single hop).
The brewery is equally excited about its release of Rippin Northwest Ale, a new year round beer. They note in the description, “Rippin has the amazing dank hop flavor of an IPA, but the easy drinking nature of a smooth pale ale.”
Sunriver Brewing hopes to have its grand opening coincide with the Rippin Northwest Ale release on February 13.
Sunriver Brewing Company’s pub in the Village at Sunriver opened to rave reviews in the summer of 2012. Recognizing that the original brewhouse would not accommodate demand, a 12,500 square foot building was purchased in the Business Park at Sunriver where in January 2014, the company began brewing with a capacity of 2100 barrels. Since then, the brewery has expanded several times to brew over 6,000 barrels this spring. Talented head brewer, Brett Thomas, prides himself on making the highest quality beer. Since 2010, Brett has garnered 10 national awards including three silver and two bronze at the NABA and consecutive gold medals at the GABF.
