5k Beer Run - Ferment Brewing | 2025 OR Brewery Running Series

Join us at Ferment Brewing on 9/20/25 for a 5k-ish, fun run/walk event that starts and ends at this awesome taproom in the heart of the Columbia River Gorge! Run, walk, jog - whatever goes! Complete the course and celebrate with craft beer at the finish line.

What’s included?!

All participants receive:

• A FREE craft beer from Ferment
• Your choice of a collector’s pint glass or seasonal swag item from the Brewery Running Series
• Your chance to win sweet door prizes, like Brewery Running Series merchandise or a beer to take home
• Access to event festivities, games, goodies, and giveaways
• And more!

Our mission is to be active, have fun, and give back to our local community. A portion of all proceeds supports local nonprofits. Nationally, we have raised over $400K to date! This event will add to that tally and support the efforts of Oregon Wild, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Ronald McDonald House, and more. So not only do you get to enjoy some healthy activity and great local beer - but you are also helping us support local organizations that do important work in our community.

Registration is limited, so sign up today!

• This is an untimed, fun run. All levels of walkers, runners, rollers, and strollers are welcome.
• This is an open course, meaning roads will NOT be closed. You are responsible for obeying all traffic laws and regulations.
• We create each route to start and end at the brewery and to show off the surrounding neighborhood. The course will be marked with arrows and volunteers; we provide a digital map to help you know where to go.
• You must bring a valid ID or driver's license. You do not need to be 21 to enjoy the event, but you must be 21 to enjoy the beer. Please drink responsibly. Registered, underage participants will receive a token for a FREE non-alcoholic beverage.
• Our events are rain or shine! If conditions become unsafe to run, we will still hang out and drink beer.
• There will not be a bag check; please plan accordingly and dress appropriately for the weather.
• Dogs and strollers are welcome on the course with care and caution. Please remember - you are running at your own risk on city sidewalks/streets/trails, which might not be suitable for your 4-legged and /or pint-size running buddies. You will also want to check with the brewery to make sure you can abide by their dog / underage policies. Please make the best decision possible for your crew.
• Please drink responsibly. We always encourage carpooling and safe, designated drivers.

Keep an eye out - we will email you all final event details the week of this event and share anything else you might need to know.
