"A boozy haven on Hood River’s 5th Street, the Hood River Common House is a bright, airy spot to grab a drink and gather with friends. A reclaimed convenience store cooler is packed full of libations from near and far: a Gorge-brewed Kings & Daughters soft IPA next to a Czech Pilsner, a Gorge-made cider next to an English cider. Likewise, the wine racks are full of bottles imported from places like the Rhône region of France, as well as a nice selection of regional wines. Those that want to cool down on a hot day can grab a “sloshy pop,” the kind of invention where strawberries mingle in a popsicle with rosé and citrus." - Melissa Haskin, Molly Allen
