Highland Park Brewery Heads North: the Shocking Pacific Northwest Summer Expansion
By Maya Lin-Takahashi
Q1: When does the Highland Park Brewery San Juan Islands pop-up open and close?
A1: The seasonal residency launched in mid-June 2026 and will run through late September 2026, coinciding with the Pacific Northwest's peak summer travel season.
Q2: Will the pop-up pour beers brewed in Washington, or are they shipped from Los Angeles?
A2: All draft pours and canned offerings are brewed and packaged at HPB’s Los Angeles facilities. They are transported north via strict cold-chain freight to guarantee freshness, though limited collaborative brews with local Washington breweries may appear during the season.
Q3: Can visitors purchase cans to-go from the island taproom?
A3: Yes. In addition to on-site draft service, the pop-up offers refrigerated four-packs of HPB’s latest IPA releases, lagers, and limited bottles to-go, subject to daily allocation limits.
