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

"In 2012, Loowit Brewing opened in a warehouse in Downtown Vancouver, bringing award-winning brews like the Gridlock Rye Porter and Shimmergloom Imperial Stout to this underserved area. The flagship beer, Shadow Shinobi IPA, has a balanced malt base hopped with a careful dose of Pacific Northwest hops like Cascade and Crystal. Loowit’s lager — a gentle, food-friendly offering — pairs well with the burgers and bites at the pub. Loowit has a second spot called Ole’s Outpost in Orchards with its own unique menu featuring cottage pie empanadas and fried brussel sprouts dressed in pomegranate and parmesan cream, sandwiches, salads, and pizzas, as well as a tap list featuring classics like their Shadow Chinobi IPA and crisp Corsair Kölsch." - Rachel Pinsky
