The Hood River Hops Fest returns for its 20th year, celebrating the fresh-hopped beers of our beloved region.

Awarded silver medal for best beer festival from the Willamette Week, Oregon Beer Awards, the Hood River Hops Fest is an annual celebration of beer’s bitter friend, freshly harvested hops.

Hood River County is surrounded by world-renowned hop-growing regions, and since 2003 brewers have gathered each October in Hood River to share their fresh-hop beer creations.

The family-friendly event features more than 30 breweries with more than 40 fresh-hop beers, plus a variety of food vendors, live music, and an awesome collectible tasting glass.
