Our Story
From a garage homebrew setup to Portland's favorite taproom. This is how passion became Craft House.
It Started With a Dream
In 2015, two friends—Jake Morrison and Emma Chen—shared a simple dream: to brew beer that brought people together. What started as weekend experiments in Jake's garage quickly became an obsession.
After hundreds of batches, countless failures, and one award-winning IPA at the Oregon Brew Fest, they knew it was time to take the leap. In 2018, Craft House Brewery opened its doors on Brewers Row.
Today, we're proud to be part of Portland's vibrant craft beer community, serving 20+ rotating taps and welcoming thousands of beer lovers every month.
Our Values
Passion First
Every beer we brew is made with love. We never cut corners, never rush the process, and never settle for "good enough."
Community Driven
We're more than a brewery—we're a gathering place. Our taproom hosts local artists, musicians, and food vendors every week.
Sustainably Minded
We source local ingredients, compost our spent grain with nearby farms, and run our taproom on 100% renewable energy.
