Tap Season is now in full swing in northwest Oregon’s Tualatin Valley, spotlighting the region’s vibrant beer and cider scene. Hosted by Explore Tualatin Valley, this annual celebration runs from January 15 to March 15, offering a variety of craft beer-themed events and activities. Among the highlights is the Ale-Paca IPA, a new collaborative brew from 15 local breweries, available both in select taprooms and in cans.

The event aims to showcase Tualatin Valley as a premier craft beer destination in Oregon, promising two months of special events, fresh releases, and returning favorites. The Tualatin Valley Ale Trail Mobile Passport, a free digital guide, leads beer enthusiasts to over 40 breweries, brew pubs, and cideries offering exclusive deals and discounts.

Explore Tualatin Valley, the area’s tourism marketing organization, emphasizes responsible drinking by recommending the use of designated drivers, public transportation, or rideshare services. This initiative not only celebrates local craft producers but also highlights one of Oregon’s largest collaborative brewing efforts.
