Washington's Beeradise & Beertown Bellingham

From hop farms to breweries to colleges to pubs, Washington is arguably the top state for all things beer. As you cross the Evergreen State, you can participate in the harvest of beer's best ingredients and sip some of the most iconic and diverse brews available. Join us as we check out Washington's up-and-coming beer town, Bellingham, discover just how important this state is to the cutting edge of the brewery industry, and learn how it might just change the world. "We're like a family," Chad Kuehl of Wander Brewing said. "We all go to each other's houses for holidays:' Kuehl was talking about the "beer family" he acquired in Bellingham, where he opened Wander Brewing in 2013."We all go to each other's houses for holidays."

At the time, only three other breweries were in operation there, a number that has quadrupled since Kuehl and his team joined the Bellingham beer scene. The established breweries embraced Kuehl and his wife, offering advice and friendship as the couple forged a trail in the world of Pacific Northwest beer in a town that's quickly becoming a favored destination among beer tourists worldwide.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
