"In 1934, before the craft breweries and wineries took over the area, Hood River Distillers was using apples and pears left over from harvest for fruit brandies and liqueurs. It still does so today, pouring and selling them alongside the gins, vodkas, whiskeys, and Nordic schnapps made by the different distilleries that form the Hood River Distillers family. Sip through flights of the different distillates or try them in mini-cocktails at the distillery’s downtown tasting room." - Zoe Baillargeon, Molly Allen
