Press Release

October 24, 2023. Hood River, OR — Hood River’s acclaimed waterfront brewery, Ferment Brewing, today announces the seasonal release of Woodsmen Porter and ESB to signal the changing season in the small mountain town. Previously available in 500ml bottles, both beers now make their seasonal 16oz can debuts. The beers arrive just as Ferment opens a new event space, perfect for booking winter and holiday parties.

Ferment’s new event space called The Beer Hall, great for gatherings large and small, boasts large windows facing the Columbia River, a cozy atmosphere, custom selection of draft beers, and menu offerings featuring party platters and family style rotisserie chicken dinners curated by the restaurant’s talented chefs. Bookings are now available; reservations can be made through the brewery's website at fermentbrewing.com

Brewed with malts from England, Belgium, Germany, and Chile, the rich malt of the 5.6% ABV Woodsmen Porter is paired with earthy hops. For an extra touch of place, Ferment added Doug Fir tips, which were foraged at the base of Mt. Hood in late Spring, adding a subtle old growth forest character to the dark beer.

Ferment ESB embodies the quintessential English-style ale, Extra Special Bitter. Almost paradoxically complex and full of rich wholegrain toast flavors, a can of the copper-colored beer sports a soft fruity ester, an easy drinking balance, and a modest alcohol content at 5.4%.

Both beers are available in digitally printed, recyclable cans and on draft throughout Ferment’s distribution footprint in Oregon and Washington.
