About Crystal Brewery

6 Barrel Brewhouse 
Established: February 1997
2016 Brewery Production: 1,615 barrels • 3,230 kegs • 400,520 pints

From this space tucked between the Crystal Ballroom and Ringlers, talented brewers offer a constant flow of unique offerings, as well as McMenamins standards and seasonals. Try some of their barrel-aged brews – these delicious libations make use of barrels that previously aged our handcrafted spirits at Edgefield Distillery.
 
The brewery is housed in what was originally the Crystal Ballroom's dance rehearsal studio. Slivers of the legendary ballroom's history are depicted on the brew and fermentation tanks, including a portrait of Lola Baldwin, the U.S.’s first female police officer who stayed busy during the Jazz Age keeping booze and other vices out of Montrose Ringler’s unseemly (in Baldwin’s opinion) dance hall.
 
One of McMenamins' pioneer brews, Crystal Ale, was named honoring the ballroom before the property was acquired, and the recipe was refined in 1997 to coincide with McMenamins’ reopening of the ballroom.
