Cowiche Creek Brewing Company

Cowiche Creek Brewing Company Located in the farming community of Cowiche, WA, we create beers that celebrate two of the best parts of Washington Agriculture - malt and Yakima hops!
(417)

Growing up as third generation farmers from small towns in Central Washington, we are no strangers to hard work. In 2012 we dove into home brewing and then growing hops to create beers that made the flavors and aromas of hops stand out. We built our own brew house, recreated commercial processes and beers, planted hop yards, and set out to build our own style of beers that were less malt and a ton

more hops. Not more bitter but instead bursting with aroma and flavor. The citrus, pine, and tropical fruit notes are what we love about our valley's hops. After a couple of years of brewing dozens and dozens of batches, the brewing experiments had taken over our house. The garage, the kitchen, the mud room, three fridges, a freezer, and a makeshift cold room. We needed a bigger system and more room. Out came the spreadsheets. Forecasting, the business plan, the marketing plan, COGS, and COGM estimates were built. Budgets, building material quotes, loans, permits, and course of construction insurance followed. September 13, 2015 we started construction. Our budget was tight. Worse than shoestring tight. We had to do as much of the work ourselves as possible to complete it. From Excavation to ADA grab bars, we did it all. On October 1st 2016 we debuted our first commercial beer at the Fresh Hop Ale Festival downtown Yakima. It was loaded with 30 lbs to the barrel with fresh hops and sold out before 9:00. We spent the next four and a half months getting our 20 BBL brew house dialed in and brewed our first batch on February 18, 2017. Many 100+ hour weeks of building and we were finally to the fun part of this business plan - Grand Opening April 15th 2017.

Big congrats to .unicycle for another Brisket Battle win! 🏆

We didn’t take the crown this year, but we’re still feeling pretty good about how both sandwiches turned out. We thought they were both fantastic!

Eli’s Shrimp & Grits are on today! Seasoned shrimp, sausage and bacon in a Cajun-inspired sauce over cheesy grits with fresh herbs.

A bowl of this and you’ll forget it’s still winter 😬

Brisket Battle is this Saturday, March 14th starting at Noon!

If OpenTable told you we’re full, don’t worry—we just turned reservations off so the taproom stays wide open for walk-ins.

Reservations aren’t required… but an appetite is 🍀

That pile of brisket you saw a couple days ago has finished its wet cure and is now corned beef. Next up, it heads to the smoker to become pastrami.

There’s a lot that goes into the meat we’re serving for the Brisket Battle this weekend. We’re not slapping some straight-out-of-the-package lunch meat on a bun and calling it good. We’re doing it the right way: from full primal to house-made pastrami.

That’s what we’re bringing to the table. Now we’re curious… how’s Tandem Unicycle's meat coming along?
