Pelican Brewing – Pacific City (Craft Beer & Brewery in Pacific City OR)

Pelican Brewing in Pacific City is the sort of place that lets the Atlantic Ocean do most of the hard work while a handful of proper craftsmen turn water, grain and hops into liquid fireworks. Their lineup reads like a cheeky menu for the adventurous palate – a tangy Sparkle Hops that snaps at you like a fresh sea‑breeze, a Smoked Porter as dark and mysterious as a midnight tide, and the legendary Kiwanda Cream Ale, the drink that earned the brewery a permanent spot on any coastal‑side beer‑lover’s bingo card.

The premises sit literally on the beach, so you can sip a pint while watching gulls argue over the best surf spot (the only thing more persuasive than the view is the Bacon Brie Flatbread, a slice of decadence that somehow never feels pretentious). The onion rings arrive perfectly crisp, and the banquet room offers a patio with a vista that makes you forget you ever needed a TV. With a solid selection of styles and a vibe that says “we know what we’re doing, but we’re not taking ourselves too seriously,” Pelican Brewing proves that good beer doesn’t need a manifesto – just a wave, a grain, and a dash of daring.
