Industry News: Yakima: Craft Beverage Yakima (CBY) invites you to sip wine, cider, spirits, or beer in Yakima

Press Release

Craft Beverage Yakima (CBY) is a unique collection of beer, cider, spirits and wine producers located in the city of Yakima and its surrounding area (gap to gap) dedicated to increasing awareness for the region as producers of high quality artisanal craft beverages.

“From our beautiful weather, great location within the Pacific NW, abundance of agricultural products, and now thriving craft beverage industry, this is an exciting time to live and work in Yakima,” said  Meghann Quinn, one of the owners of Bale Breaker Brewing Company and CBY Member.   “More and more people are looking for a farm-to-table (or in our case, farm-to-glass) experience, which is why CBY is committed to showcasing Yakima as the craft beverage destination that it is.”

In an effort to better showcase and market CBY producers, the group recently launched a tour map highlighting all the distinctive members and offering a 32 oz mini growler as a reward for individuals who collect stamps at 10 different CBY locations.  

“The tour map is a great way for us to communicate our message and a fun way to encourage people to safely enjoy and sample many different varieties,” said Phil Cline of Naches Heights Vineyard and CBY President.

Locals and visitors alike can pick up tour maps at one of the 13 participating locations, or download one online.  For a list of participating businesses, please visitwww.craftbeverageyakima.com.
