Working Hands Beer
My favorite Wine Bar in the Gorge! They have a great selection of wine and the owner makes her own wines with Gamay grapes. Their small plates are all delicious.
A good alternative to pFriem and Ferment (the founder of Full Sail trained the owners of these two breweries, actually). I like their Session IPA. Good views of the river too!
