Solera Brewery

Columbia River Gorge


In the orchard-covered hamlet of Parkdale, this brewpub has an awesome patio out back that – especially in spring and summer – gives you a picture-perfect view of Mt Hood amid the blossoming fruit trees. There's good beer and a simple menu of burgers and sandwiches, including vegetarian and gluten-free options.
