Seven Territories, One Ale Trail
Back in the day, Bend was a logging town. Today, we’re a lager town. And porter. And IPA. And…well, let’s say craft beer’s booming in Bend.
From six breweries when the Bend Ale Trail launched in 2010 to more than two dozen today, craft beer is king around these parts. Blend in a bunch of distilleries, cideries, wineries, and kombucha brewers and you’ve got a mind-boggling craft beverage scene that’ll never be boring.
