About Wet Dog Cafe and Astoria Brewing

The Wet Dog Cafe was founded in 1995. The brewery was added in 1997 under the name Pacific Rim Brewery. The name of the Brewery was changed to Astoria Brewing Company in 2005 to commemorate Astoria’s First Brewing Company, which was established in 1872. The Wet Dog was named after…the original owner’s dog…he loved the water and was always WET.

Our Brew Master uses only the finest ingredients to create our exceptional beers. Each beer is handcrafted using a wide range of hops and grains, thus creating unique flavors. It takes approximately 2 weeks for grain, water, and hops to become our tasty brews. We keep our four-barrel system busy producing over 400 barrels annually. Our brewery is currently under construction increasing our capacity to an eight-barrel system to be ready and operating in 2008 allowing us to produce over 800 barrels a year.

The riverfront deck is open during the summer months through the fall, offering patrons a fantastic view of the Columbia River. Perhaps you will see the Astoria Riverfront Trolley make it’s way down the waterfront and stopping at the foot of 11th Street. Don’t forget to wave!
