Pub Crawl

Oregon is a special place for those of us who love craft brews. Yachats, with points north in Newport and points south in Florence, is no exception! From craft beers to hard ciders, there’s something for everyone.

Whether you prefer the hoppy style of an India pale ale, the caramel hints of an amber, or the malty richness of the darker stouts and porters, tempt your tastebuds with a great selection of locally produced craft beer.

Nearby, at the Yachats Underground Pub & Grub, Two Shrew Brewery crafts an English-style stout. Fans of dark beer should not miss this malt-forward and smooth brew, made on site!

Pelican Brewing Neighborhood Pub, housed in what used to be LeRoy’s Blue Whale, features a variety of its ales on tap, including IPAs, light ales, fruit and red ales, plus lagers and pilsners. Sample more than one with a flight or a taster tray. Outdoor seating area is pet-friendly.

If you’re planning a day trip to the Cape Perpetua National Scenic Area, consider heading a bit farther south to Florence and stop at Homegrown Public House & Brewery, 294 Laurel St., with local Oregon brews on tap. Homegrown’s food menu features seafood favorites and sandwiches, salads and soups, with many ingredients locally sourced.

Beer fans venturing north of Yachats to Newport for the day, may visit Claim 52 Brewing on the historic bayfront. The rotating tap list features Claim 52’s roster of brews, including limited and seasonal releases.

Travelers venturing farther north or south should check out Travel Oregon’s Central Oregon Coast Food Trail. It’s full of the best the Oregon Central Coast has to offer, many craft breweries included!
