Final Draft Taphouse is a craft-beer bar in Vancouver Washington featuring 30 rotating craft beers, craft cider and wine, and a small food selection. We offer the community an entertaining, welcoming, community craft-beer bar to gather to learn about and enjoy high quality, local craft beers while connecting with existing and new friends.
We celebrated two years in the craft beer business this past weekend! Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate with us! We can not be more grateful for all the love and support and for all the friendships and connections that have come from opening Final Draft Taphouse!
We look forward to many more years of sharing stories and craft beer together!
Mark Your Calendars Beer Friends!!!
We are turning TWO in July, and we're going to throw a party! Save the date for July 26 AND 27!
We are so excited to celebrate our two-year anniversary with all of you. We're having TWO rad events, and here are more of the details!
Friday, July 26 - We'll be releasing our special TWO-YEAR Anniversary beer we brewed in collaboration with Brothers Cascadia Brewing! This will be a special, limited CAN RELEASE that you will want to get...a rad label included designed by our friend Jeremy Backer!
Saturday, July 27 - We're throwing a big ole two-year party this day/night that it will feel like Christmas in July! A bunch of crazy, awesome barrel-aged beers on tap, cake, giveaways, Santa is going to make a visit - even though he is very busy getting ready for the real deal Christmas, and we'll have beery christmas caroling led by our brew-loving ladies of Couve Brew Bevy!
We hope you can join us. One night, two nights, either way, we would love to celebrate with you and give you a HUGE THANK YOU hug, high-five or cheers! Because well, we wouldn't be two years old without all of you!
We support independent craft beer! It is at the core of what we do, and we believe in independent craft beer! We support local, independent craft bee because craft beer brewers are innovative, take risks, create new and adventurous flavors, and are the backbone to building better communities!
Have you ever noticed when a craft brewery opens in an area or a town or a city, that the economy and area shapes up, cleans up, becomes alive again?
Craft beer is all about small business, community, and the craft beer community supports values and beliefs that benefit each other and the communities they serve!
Independence is also important because independent craft beer brewers aren’t beholden to BIG beer. When you are consuming craft beer, do you know who makes it? Do you know if they are truly independent or not?
Seek the Seal! The Brewers Association has created an independent craft beer seal that looks like the one below (without the supporter on the bottom). 4,400 craft beer breweries across the United States have adopted the seal and display it in their breweries and on their craft-beer packaging. Look for the seal to truly know if the beer you are drinking is independent!
Here are two in Washington. Grains of Wrath (L) and Matchless Brewing (R)

We’re so excited to share that we now have beer cooler! We have packed it with more craft beer for you to explore! While we will always focus on having an amazing craft beer draft list, we will focus on stocking our cooler with packaged cans and bottles of beer that we don’t have on draft. Well, you can maybe call us a mini bottle shop now! If owner Mike has anything to do with the selection in the beer cooler, you know if will be RAD! Next time you come and hang with us, check out craft beer selection in our cooler!

Thursday, Oct. 11, Northbank Brewers Alliance presented us with the ‘NorthBank Champion’ trophy. The trophy is an annual award honoring 3 local taprooms in response to a single question survey of the breweries: “Which taproom does the best to support SW Washington Beer?” Each brewery has 1 vote and the public Facebook vote accounted for 1.5 votes in the event of a tie.
We were completely surprised! Mike and I were both working behind the bar, and we starting noticing many of our craft beer friends (industry friends) were arriving. We were so grateful to see everyone but honestly just thought they were meeting up for meetings and/or pints together. About an hour into to noticing, next thing you know, Mike DiFabio of Fortside Brewing, a member of the NorthBank Brewers Alliance, came up to the bar with the trophy and made the announcement. We were totally surprised and taken aback. Everyone cheered, we said a few words and there may have been some tears along with it!
We are very grateful to be recognized by the Northbank brewers and North Bank craft beer community! We love this community and supporting local craft beer. We believe in SW Washington and what the breweries are doing to make this a great place to live, work, and share life with others. We work very hard running our taphouse and want to make it a place where everyone is welcome, and we can highlight local, independent craft beer! To be recognized for doing what you love is very rewarding! Thank you to everyone who voted for us! We are in very good company, and we are proudly displaying our award in our taproom!
2nd place was Hockinson Market joined by 3Peaks Public House and Taproom for 3rd. All three taprooms are engraved on the award for 2018!
