Hopworks Urban Brewery

Hopworks was founded by spouses Christian and Brandie Ettinger in 2007. In late 2016, Hopworks expanded into Washington by opening a 6,000-square-foot brewpub and seven-barrel brewery in east Vancouver. The Portland International Airport restaurant opened in 2019. In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic in Oregon, Hopworks' pub on North Williams Avenue closed. The Vancouver location remained open for nearly a decade before closing on August 9, 2025, as part of a strategic decision to refocus the company on its flagship Powell Boulevard location. == Reception ==

Hopworks was a runner-up in the Best Family-Friendly Restaurant category of Willamette Week annual 'Best of Portland' readers' poll in 2022. It ranked second and was a finalist in the same category in 2024 and 2025, respectively. The brewery has been recognized at national competitions. At the 2025 Great American Beer Festival (GABF), Hopworks won a silver medal in the Extra Special Bitter (ESB) category for Velvet Organic ESB and a bronze medal in the Pumpkin Beer category for Great Gourds of Fire. ==See also==
