September Is Here… And So Is Your Excuse to Hit the Taproom
You know it’s officially fall in Oregon when the temperature drops, football starts, and your patio beer somehow starts tasting even better. At Hoppy Brewer, we’re leaning into the season with a lineup of events that’ll make you forget all about pumpkin spice. (Unless it’s in a stout — we’ll allow it.)
This month, your favorite Gresham taproom is keeping the good times pouring with a jam-packed event calendar, dog-friendly patio seating, and more new brews than a homebrewer’s garage fridge. So go ahead — use “fall” as your excuse to fall into a pint or two.
Live Music, Beer Events, and Yes — Even More Reasons to Be Here
We like to say we’re where Gresham goes to relax, and September is no exception. Here’s what’s happening at the Hoppy Brewer this month — mark your calendars and maybe even your growlers:
Friday, September 5
- Cider Event with 2 Towns from 6:00 to 8:00 pm
A toast to the crisp, tangy, and dangerously sippable. Perfect for cider fans and beer drinkers who like their apples cold and bubbly.
- Live Music with Secondhand Jam from 6:00 to 9:00 pm
These folks never play second fiddle — unless the fiddle solo calls for it. Great tunes, great vibes, and a perfect pairing with your favorite pint.
Saturday, September 13
- Live Music with Kivett Bednar Band from 6:00 to 9:00 pm
Bluesy, soulful, and guaranteed to make your beer taste even smoother.
Thursday, September 18
- Beer Event with Sierra Nevada from 6:00 to 8:00 pm
Because sometimes, legendary breweries need their moment — and your glass needs a refill.
- Live Music with Fast Eddie from 6:00 to 9:00 pm
Blink and you might miss him — but your ears and your pint will thank you.
Saturday, September 20
- Live Music with Woodlander from 3:00 to 6:00 pm
Come early, grab a table on the patio, and let the folk-infused melodies guide you through your next IPA.
Saturday, September 27
- Live Music with FiddleSchtix from 6:00 to 9:00 pm
No strings attached — except for the ones they’re absolutely shredding on stage.
What’s on Tap? More Like What’s Not
If you’re the kind of person who checks a tap list before checking the weather (we see you), then you’ll want to bookmark our live tap list. We keep it fresh, local, and rotating faster than your fantasy football roster.
Can’t find what you’re craving? Take a peek at our canned and bottled beer list. It’s the kind of thing you’ll want to brag about — or at least post in the group chat.
Cider Season Has Entered the Chat
Fall in Oregon means one thing: apples are back in style. Whether you like your cider dry, tart, or with just a kiss of sweetness, our cider list has you covered. Bonus: the 2 Towns event on September 5 is a great way to test your tastebuds and sound like a cider expert in front of your friends.
Pro tip: cider also makes a great backup when your beer-loving buddy has already called dibs on your usual.
Got Wine? Oh, We Got Wine
Beer not your thing? You’re still welcome here (we don’t judge). Our wine list features reds, whites, and bubbles that can stand proudly next to anything on tap. Plus, wine and live blues? That’s a pairing even the snobbiest sommelier would approve.
Still Patio Season, and the Dogs Agree
Some say September is when outdoor seating ends. We say: that’s quitter talk. Our outdoor taproom in Gresham OR is just getting started. We’ve got heat lamps, great music, and more fleece vests per capita than a trailhead in the Gorge.
And yes — your dog is welcome. Bring your pup, grab a seat, and let them enjoy the sniff buffet while you sip on something seasonal. It’s basically a night out for both of you.
From Gresham to Happy Valley, We’re Your Taproom Near Me
We love being Gresham’s neighborhood favorite, but we’ve got fans coming in from Troutdale, Sandy, Happy Valley, and beyond. If you’re Googling “taproom near me” and our name comes up, trust the algorithm — you’re in the right place.
And if you’re looking for an outdoor taproom Gresham residents rave about, with cider events, live music, and a patio where everyone knows your name (or your dog’s), then we’ll see you this week.
