The Best Breweries in Vancouver, Washington and Its Surrounding Towns | Eater Portland

"Heathen Brewing’s Feral Public House opened in downtown Vancouver in 2012, part of a wave of craft breweries that breathed life back into this part of town. Beer drinkers are drawn to Heathen’s spacious outdoor patio, the distinctive take on pub grub, and a long tap list of stellar brews ranging from a crisp Kolsch to a cold brew porter made with Kafiex Coffee Roasters beans. Heathen excels at fruited beers like the mojito sour ale with mint and lime as well as the raspberry rhubarb sour. The production brewery in Salmon Creek recently released a small selection of hard ciders; Pineapple Dream with pineapple, lime zest, and vanilla tastes as juicy and tangy as a ripe piece of fruit." - Rachel Pinsky
