Cascade Lakes Brewing Company Production Facility (Craft Beer & Brewery in Redmond OR)

Cascade Lakes Brewing Company in Redmond, Oregon, is the state’s first not‑for‑profit brewery, and it wears the badge with a smug grin. Every pint of barrel‑aged ale, every crisp cider, and even the odd experimental brew is siphoned straight into the community coffers, so you can feel a tiny bit heroic while wiping foam from your beard.

The brewpubs are more than just noisy tap‑rooms; they are proper eating venues where the menu fights off the stereotype that craft beer fans survive on pretzels alone. The Reuben sandwich is a solid, meat‑loving delight, and the traditional wings (which, let’s be honest, outshine the newer offerings) are seasoned like a champion boxer—punchy, precise, and unapologetically tasty. Outdoor seating invites sunshine and wagging tails (yes, dogs are welcome), turning a casual drink into a social rally.

What makes Cascade Lakes genuinely refreshing is its willingness to let good beer do good work, without any self‑important pomposity. You walk in, order a barrel‑aged stout, and leave with a grin, a satisfied stomach, and the comforting knowledge that your indulgence is funding local projects. Cheers to that.
