Rogue Ales

Oregon Brewing Company, better known as Rogue Ales & Spirits crafts beer, spirits, cider and soda. The original Rogue Ales opened in 1988 in Ashland, Oregon, and has since relocated its headquarters to a larger facility in Newport, Ore. Oregon Brewing Company operates eight pubs in Oregon, one in San Francisco, Calif. and another in Issaquah, Wash. The company also distills whiskey and gin and crafts their own barrels. Oregon Brewing Company was founded in 1988 by University of Oregon fraternity brothers Jack Joyce and Bob Woodell, their friend, Rob Strasser, and Woodell's accountant (and home brewer) Jeff Schultz.
