Let’s be honest: when it hits 80 degrees in Gresham, it’s basically a public service to pour yourself a cold one. 
And if you’re going to crack a beer this summer, it might as well be something exceptional. The kind of brew that tastes like sunshine, backyard barbecues, and “let’s have just one more” vibes. 

At The Hoppy Brewer, we’re making it easy. Our taps are filled with the best beers summer has to offer — fresh, flavorful, and ready for whatever kind of day you’re having (lazy patio sit? Post-hike celebration? Tuesday afternoon that feels suspiciously like a Friday? We’ve got you). 

What Makes a Beer “Summer-Ready”? 

Summer beers aren’t just lighter — they’re brighter, more refreshing, and brewed with hot days in mind. They’re the beers you want when you’re kicking back in the shade, grilling with friends, or cooling off after yard work. 

Here’s what we look for in the perfect summer pour: 

• Crispness: Clean, sharp, and thirst-quenching. Kölsches, pilsners, and lagers are MVPs here. 

• Citrus notes: A little lemon, a little grapefruit, a lot of refreshment. Think pale ales, hazy IPAs, and fruited wheats. 

• Low-to-mid ABV: You want to enjoy more than one, after all. 

• Sessionable body: Flavorful but light enough to keep sipping. 

Basically, summer beers should taste like a deep breath of Oregon air and the last bite of a popsicle — cool, easy, and completely satisfying. 

What’s Pouring at The Hoppy Brewer 

We’re not saying our summer tap list is perfect, but… okay, fine, we are saying that. 

Right now, you’ll find a rotating lineup that covers everything summer drinkers crave — from ultra-refreshing lagers to hop-forward hazies to juicy fruit blends you’ll want to bring to every BBQ. 

Check our always-updating Live Tap List for current offerings, but here’s a taste of what you can expect: 

• Citrus Wheat Ales – Orange peel, coriander, soft malt body. Basically sunshine in a glass. 

• Hazy IPAs – Tropical fruit bomb with a fluffy texture and low bitterness. The beach day of beers. 

• Kölsch-style Ales – German-inspired, Oregon-refined. Crisp and subtle, with just enough hops to keep it interesting. 

• Session IPAs – All the hop aroma, less of the knockout punch. A smart (and delicious) all-day option. 

• Fruited Sours – Tangy and tart, with berry or stone fruit kick. If you’re into sour candy, this one’s calling. 

And because we live for variety, you’ll likely find a few one-off kegs, small-batch releases, and “you gotta try this” staff picks behind the bar too. 

Perfect Pairings for Summer Sips 

A great beer is even better when paired with food that compliments the season — and let’s face it, summer eating is its own delicious adventure. 

Here’s how to match your meal with your pint: 

• Burgers + Kölsch – The beer’s subtle malt notes let that grilled goodness shine. 

• Grilled fish tacos + Hazy IPA – The tropical notes love spicy slaw and citrusy sauces. 

• BBQ ribs + Wheat beer – Light enough to cut through the smoke, flavorful enough to hold its own. 

• Caprese salad + Sour ale – Fruit acidity meets fresh tomato and basil? Yes, please. 

And whether you’re grabbing something from a local food truck or bringing snacks from home, we’re always happy to help you find the right match. Just ask behind the bar — we take pairing very seriously (but not too seriously). 

Sip It Here or Take It To-Go 

Our taproom is summer-ready too — indoor and outdoor seating, shade umbrellas, and even a dog-friendly patio for your four-legged beer buddy. But if you’re headed to the mountains, the river, or just your own backyard, we’ve got you covered with: 

• Crowlers and growlers for your next camping trip 

• Packaged beers from top Oregon and regional breweries 

• Chill recommendations for road beers (the legal kind — drink responsibly, folks) 

Your perfect summer six-pack is probably sitting in our cooler right now. Just sayin’. 

Make It a Summer to Sip On 

There’s no wrong way to summer — but sipping something cold, craft, and delicious at Gresham’s favorite taproom is definitely the right way. 

Check the Live Tap List to see what’s flowing today, or browse our Beers We Carry for what you might want to bring home. 
And hey, don’t sleep on our Ciders We Carry — they’ve got serious summer energy, too. 

Find out why we are the Best Taproom in Gresham and read our reviews. Your next favorite beer is waiting — and the season’s just getting started. 

It’s sweet. It’s crisp. It’s bubbly. And yes — it absolutely belongs in your hand this summer. 
We’re talking cider, of course — the unsung hero of warm weather sipping. And here at The Hoppy Brewer in Gresham, we’re giving it the full spotlight it deserves this June. 

Whether you’re a cider die-hard or a craft beer drinker looking to switch things up, this is your official invitation to explore everything cold, fruity, and fermented on the refreshing side of the tap list. 

So, Why Cider? 

Sure, we love our hops — but sometimes you need something a little more refreshing, a little less bitter, and a lot more crisp. Cider is a natural fit for long summer days, especially here in Oregon, where local orchards provide the perfect base for craft cider-makers to experiment with flavor and fermentation. 

What makes cider such a standout this season? 

• It’s cold and clean — no heavy aftertaste, no hoppy overload. 

• It’s endlessly versatile — from dry to sweet, apple to berry, floral to funky. 

• It’s gluten-free — so even your beer-averse friends have something tasty to sip. 

And let’s be honest: nothing feels more “picnic-ready” than a pint of chilled cider on a sunny day. (Add a cheese board and a patio table, and you’re basically winning summer.) 

What’s Pouring at The Hoppy Brewer 

Our cider lineup is handpicked and constantly rotating, just like our beer taps. We showcase the best Oregon and Pacific Northwest cideries alongside a few out-of-state gems to keep things interesting. 

Some styles you might find on our Live Tap List this month: 

• Classic Dry Apple Cider: A crisp, clean baseline that lets the fruit shine. Zero sugar, all character. 

• Berry-Infused Ciders: Raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries add sweet-tart complexity to a standard pour. A total crowd-pleaser. 

• Hopped Ciders: Yes, really. Hop-forward without the bitterness — just a floral kick to complement the apple base. 

• Pear Ciders (Perry): Smooth and slightly sweet with a lighter mouthfeel — a great choice for anyone who likes things mellow and drinkable. 

Want to browse ahead of time? Our full Ciders We Carry page is a great place to start planning your next flight. 

And don’t forget: we offer cider flights for the indecisive. (Or the curious. Or the thirsty. We don’t judge.) 

Perfect Pairings for Cider Season 

Cider may be sweet and approachable, but don’t let that fool you — it plays very well with food. In fact, cider can go where beer sometimes can’t, especially when you’re dealing with bright, spicy, or acidic dishes. 

Here are a few summer pairings to get your gears turning: 

• Dry cider + grilled chicken tacos — the crisp finish balances spice and citrus beautifully. 

• Berry cider + a sharp cheddar board — sweet meets salty in the best possible way. 

• Hopped cider + summer salads — complements herbs, vinaigrettes, and anything with goat cheese. 

• Pear cider + prosciutto-wrapped melon — trust us on this one. You’ll never go back. 

Hosting a backyard BBQ or picnic in the park? Cider travels well and plays nice with just about every plate on the table. 

Try It Here, Take It Home 

Fallen for a new favorite cider? You’re not alone. 
We offer crowler and growler fills so you can bring that sunshine-sipper home with you — perfect for road trips, campouts, or just stocking your fridge for when the next heat wave hits. 

Looking for something pre-packaged? We’ve got bottles and cans from top producers ready to grab and go. Oregon-made. Summer-approved. 

Make Cider Season Part of Your Summer Routine 

At The Hoppy Brewer, cider season isn’t just a trend — it’s a tradition. We’ve got the patio space, the friendly crew, and the rotating taps to make every visit refreshing and new. Whether you’re trying cider for the first time or you’re already three flights deep into obsession, we’re here to keep your glass full and your summer chill. 

Want the best way to discover your cider style? Come in, grab a seat, and start sipping your way through the tap list.

You’ll often find:

• Limited-release collabs 

• Barrel-aged beauties

Come for the pints. Stay for the sunshine. Leave with a story (and maybe a new favorite beer).

Ingredients That Make Your Beer Blossom 

A good beer starts with great ingredients, and we’re not talking about the half-empty bag of hops you found at the back of your fridge. 

At The Hoppy Brewer, we stock: 

• Fresh Hops: Citrus, floral, dank, fruity — whatever your flavor dreams are, we have hops to match. 

• Specialty Malts: Build your body and flavor from the ground up. 

• Yeast Varieties: From clean ale strains to funky farmhouse fermenters. 

• Brewing Additives: Citrus peel, honey, spices — you name it, we can probably help you throw it in a beer. 

Whether you’re dreaming of a juicy New England IPA, a bright honey wheat ale, or a light session beer perfect for summer afternoons, we’ve got the ingredients (and maybe a few recipe ideas) to get you brewing like a pro. 

Need inspiration? Check out the Beers We Carry and Ciders We Carry to see what the pros are pouring right now. There’s no shame in stealing a few good ideas — we call it “creative research.” 

Pro Tips for Spring Brewing Success 

Brewing in spring gives you a few big advantages (and a few small challenges). Here’s what to keep in mind when you fire up the kettle: 

• Watch the Temps: Cool spring nights can sneak up on your fermenter. Keep your brew in a spot that stays consistent to avoid sluggish yeast. 

• Keep It Light: Spring beers are all about drinkability. Think pale ales, wheat beers, and saisons — styles that make you want to drink another… and another. 

• Seasonal Twists: Add fresh lemon peel, local honey, or even herbs from your garden for a unique spring signature brew. (Thyme IPA, anyone?) 

• Brew Now, Party Later: A batch you start in May will be hitting peak deliciousness right when summer parties start rolling in. 

And remember: If your first batch doesn’t turn out perfect, it’s fine. That’s why we call it a homebrewing hobby and not homebrewing perfectionism. (Besides, even “okay” beer is still beer.) 

Have questions mid-brew? Need help fixing a stuck fermentation? Just want to brag about how great your last batch turned out? We’re here for it.

Beer Garden Weather Is Here 

Let’s be honest — the only thing better than drinking great beer is drinking great beer outside while listening to live music. And The Hoppy Brewer’s beer garden is Gresham’s go-to spring spot. 

Our space is:

• Spacious and sunny: Plenty of seating, shade umbrellas, and open-air good vibes.

Fresh Flavors That’ll Make You Hoppy 

Say goodbye to the heavy winter stouts and hello to beers that taste like a breath of fresh air. Spring is all about bright, lively flavors, and our taps are absolutely blooming with the good stuff. 

Expect to see (and sip) a lineup full of: 

• Floral IPAs that smell like you stuck your face into a field of wildflowers (in a good way). 

• Citrusy Saisons that bring notes of lemon, pepper, and a little “where has this been all my life?” energy. 

• Berry-Infused Ciders that make every sunny day feel like a picnic. 

Not sure where to start? No worries. Just pop over to our Live Tap List — it’s like a dating app, but for beer. Swipe right on whatever catches your eye (and your tastebuds). 

Whether you’re craving something light and crisp or something fruity and fun, there’s a pint with your name on it. Probably not literally, but you get the idea. 

Perfect Pairings for Spring Snacking 

What’s better than a cold pint on a sunny day? A cold pint and the perfect snack to go with it. 

Spring beers and ciders pair beautifully with the kinds of food you actually want to eat when the weather gets nice — lighter fare, grilled goodies, and anything you can eat with one hand while holding your beer in the other. 

Here are a few can’t-miss combos: 

• Citrusy Saisons + Grilled Chicken Salad: It’s basically what sunshine tastes like. 

• Floral IPAs + Spicy Street Tacos: When the heat from the taco meets the hops in the beer, it’s a flavor mic drop. 

• Berry Ciders + Charcuterie Boards: Because “fancy picnic vibes” are always in season. 

And if you’re grabbing a bite from one of Gresham’s awesome food trucks nearby, let our staff know what you’re eating — we love helping people find their perfect pint pairing. It’s basically our superpower. 

Need more ideas? Check out our full Beers We Carry and Ciders We Carry lists and start planning your flavor adventure. 

Bring the Sunshine Home 

Love what you tasted? You don’t have to leave the good vibes at the brewery. We offer crowler fills, growlers, and packaged options so you can keep the spring spirit going wherever you roam — backyards, barbecues, camping trips, or “just one beer” nights that somehow turn into three-beer nights (hey, no judgment here). 

Our shelves are stocked with everything from local legends to hidden gems. Whether you’re looking for that citrusy pale ale you fell in love with or you want to mix it up with a new seasonal cider, we’ve got you covered.
