It’s always sunny in Port Townsend. Not really, and I am probably just lucky, but it seems that way to me. Today, I share news that after 14 years the creators of the town’s beloved, harbor-side bottleshop and beer bar are looking to hand the keys over to new owners. Pourhouse is for sale. Maybe this is a dream opportunity for you.
Pourhouse Taproom and Bottleshop is located a block east of Propolis Brewing on Port Townsend’s working waterfront. The entire place is lovely but its beer garden is probably one of the best in the state. I don’t say that lightly. Sprawling out the back of the building, the large, south-facing beer garden sits on the shore of Port Townsend Bay and even offers a peek-a-boo view of Mount Rainier in the distance. Endless, relaxation-inducing entertainment is provided by the near-constant stream of marine traffic, much of it wind-powered or people-powered. The beer garden has also been known to host live music. (My band played there, for instance.)
Here is what the real estate listing had to say about it.
“The Olympic Peninsula’s most beloved craft beer taproom and bottle shop is looking for its next stewards! Located right on the beach at the mouth of Port Townsend Bay, Pourhouse has happily served locals and visitors alike since 2012. Known for having the area’s best selection of craft beers, Pourhouse offers 14 thoughtfully curated taps and over 200 cans and bottles from regionally and nationally acclaimed producers.”
“Take in spectacular waterfront views from the beer garden complete with abundant seating, music stage, ping pong table, and a covered porch for year-round enjoyment. Inside, you’ll find a welcoming bar and cozy spaces to gather for sporting events, board games, celebrations, and more. Remarkably consistent sales, a loyal clientele, well established operations, unparalleled location, long-term lease, and room to grow make this thriving Port Townsend institution a rare gem! Please view with discretion and do not disturb staff or business operations.”
