The Columbia River drains a 259,000-square-mile basin including territory in seven states and one Canadian province. You ought to be able to drain a pint or two at McMenamins on the Columbia! When you do, you'll be glad to know that there are no walls around our brewery, where customers watch the brewers lovingly carry out their noble work. But don't let that view distract you from the spectacular panorama of the mighty Columbia River. At McMenamins on the Columbia, generous accordion-style doors lead hungry patrons onto an outdoor deck where hearty pub fare and ales brewed onsite are served up against nature's spectacular backdrop.
