"Buoy Beer, which moved its taproom to the spacious Astoria Food Hub warehouse after its own facilities collapsed, is one of Astoria’s iconic breweries and a point of pride for the town’s beer lovers. In its new family-friendly digs, visitors can knock back a pint or two in a bright, modern space with counter service. Thoughtfully sourced menu items include rockfish and chips, an albacore tuna salad sandwich, or oysters from nearby waters, plus burgers, soft pretzels, and salads. An array of rotating ales and lagers on draft and by the bottle will please all palates, and the kids menu will entertain the small ones." - Jennifer Burns Bright
"The roof of Buoy Beer Company in Astoria partially collapsed, leading to a temporary closure. No injuries were reported, and the company’s sister brands will continue operations. Efforts are being made to keep staff employed, and inspections are ongoing to determine the cause of the collapse." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"Like so many brewpubs , Buoy in Astoria capitalizes its dude-friendly industrial vibe. Though it sits right on a pier on the river, close to the heart of downtown, the exterior has all the charm of a giant corrugated metal warehouse. Inside it’s all thick wood, exposed beams, and metal ductwork. The three things that set this place apart, however, will make you a die-hard fan: the glass window in the floor, where you can watch the massive sea lions flop around on wood platforms under the pier; the incredible river views; and the truly fantastic beer. Buoy’s taps seem to always offer something new, with a selection that ranges from light Czech-style pilsners to Belgian strong ales and sours. In between, you’ll find a core of greatest hits always on tap, including the very balanced IPA—a fan favorite all over the Northwest." - Danielle Centoni
