Grainmaker Beer Festival It’s harvest time! You know what that means? Fresh, locally grown grains for fresh, locally made beer! Although the 10 collaborative brews showcased for this year’s annual Grainmaker Beer Festival don’t contain grain harvested this season, the event is both a celebration and showcase of the 2023 crop for breweries from the Pacific Northwest and beyond who reap the rewards. Hosted by YaYa Brewing and LINC Malt, more than 20 such breweries have been invited to see this year’s harvest in action, and to showcase their brewing excellence via 10 collaboratively made beers. There’s no special ticket required to come out and sample the festival brews — just come and buy individual pours of each — however, beer is available first come, first served, until the kegs blow.
