Review: Doomsday Brewing, Washougal WA

DOOMSDAY BREWING CO., WASHOUGAL WA On Saturday April 11th, Doomsday Brewing was the last of three breweries visited in SW Washington. I’ve only been to Doomsday brewing one time prior, and that was to their “Zombeer Halloween” costume party that happened last year (2014). It was a lot of fun, and I got a lot of compliments on my ZombEaster Bunny costume. The location is in an industrial building with limited signage (as you can see in the picture, and that’s Ryan, my drinking buddy for the day)…you need to use your nav to get there if you don’t know where it is.

They do have a couple of TV’s that typically show sports, so if you need a place to hang out and watch a game, this is definitely an option.
