Discover the brewing history of the Lilac City!
The center of Eastern Washington, Spokane was founded in 1873 and named after the local tribe in the area. Breweries came soon after because of the great wealth of usable water in the form of Spokane Brewing Company, Inland Brewing Company, and Schade Brewery. After Prohibition, local beer continued to be created with regional conglomerates - Bohemian Breweries and Sick Brewery Enterprises - coming to town. Today, the city boasts one of the strongest craft beer scenes in all of the Pacific Northwest!
Suggested beers when visiting: Garbage Pale Ale (Iron Goat), Sun Child IPA (Little Spokane), and Santa's Snack Imperial Oreo Stout (For the Love of God).
