SEASIDE BREWING COMPANY
Seaside Civic & Convention Center
415 First Ave., Seaside
Doors open for homebrewers to partic-
ipate in the Regional Homebrewer’s
Competition featuring beer writers and
a panel of certii ed judges from the Beer
Judge Certii cation Program. The compe-
tition is open to both coastal and regional
homebrewers. No general admission.
3 p.m.
The historic brick building at the corner of U.S. Highway 101 and
Broadway in Seaside was built in 1914 following a i re that gutted half
the town two years prior. The building served as the City Hall, jail and
a portion of the i re station. In the 1980s a new City Hall and i re sta-
tion was completed on the east side of the highway. The old building
remained vacant until 2011 when it underwent its i rst restoration.
Jimmy Griffi n, owner of Seaside Brewing Co., took over the build-
ing and worked to respectfully restore it as a brewery. “The location
of the building stood out as a centerpiece to the community,” Griffi n
said as his reason to choose to take over the facility.
Though his original plan was to only create a brewery, the central
location invited expanding that idea to include a restaurant and pub.
Griffi n, who worked several years for Rogue Ales, brought along
Vince Berg as the brewer. Berg brews seven staples for Seaside Brew-
ery that are on their board along with several seasonal specialties.
“We carry other beers as well as our own,” adds Griffi n. This makes
Seaside Brewing Company a mecca for beer lovers along the coast
where they can enjoy an outdoor i re pit or the welcoming restored
pub as they sip and sample their favorite craft brews.

OREGON COAST BREWER’S DINNER
Jimmy Griffi n, owner and president of Seaside Brewing Co., is
contracted by the Seaside Chamber of Commerce to coordinate the
brewers for Pouring at the Coast. Griffi n invites brewers to partici-
pate from Oregon, Washington and Northern California to showcase
the best of the Northwest brew craft.
“Oregon is the capital of the beer world,” notes Griffi n. So natural-
ly, Pouring at the Coast features many Oregon brews.
Griffi n takes pride in creating a true craft beer festival whose
focus is the beer. But as a champion of local business, he also added
Pilot House Spirits this year, a distiller from Astoria that recently
opened a tasting room in Seaside.
There is also a growing homebrew community that Griffi n is ded-
icated to showcasing each year. He registers Pouring at the Coast
with the Beer Judge Competition Program as a competition site for
homebrewers. Sample brews are collected and brought to Pouring
at the Coast where certii ed judges select the top three homebrews.
