Everybody’s Brewing Co

In 2001, Doug Ellenberger packed up his 1987 Volvo Station Wagon and made the haul from Indiana to Hood River, Oregon, following his love of craft beer and mountainous terrain. He brought with him a few duffel bags belongings and a load of knowledge from his time brewing for Lafayette Brewing Co. He landed himself a job at Full Sail Brewing, honing his craft. 

One year later, in 2002, Christine McAleer left her life and career as a social worker in West Virginia to pursue her passion for the outdoors, landing her in the great Columbia River Gorge. One seasonal gig after the other, she found herself at Full Sail Brewing, where she met Doug. 

Friends at first, it didn’t take long to turn into something more (especially at the rate Doug likes to share terribly corny jokes). They fell in love, not only with each other, but with a mutual dream of owning a business that would reflect their desire to provide innovative brews, locally-sourced food, and – most importantly – a place for friends, family, and strangers to connect and find a sense of home. Six years and a whole lot of footwork later, Everybody’s Brewing was founded in White Salmon, WA.
