Brewery Profile

Northwood Public House & Brewery

For a visitor exploring Battle Ground’s beer options, this public house offers more than a single-room taproom. The setting includes a taproom, a separate bar area with televisions, an outdoor patio, and a private banquet room, so the feel of a visit can shift depending on whether the stop is for a beer, a meal, a game, or a group gathering. The brewing side is small in scale: Northwood Public House & Brewery uses a 2-barrel nano system called the Little Dipper. Brewers Gary Gross and Mike O’Heron use it for small-batch beers, including some higher-gravity offerings. That house brewing setup gives the pub a local point of focus without making the beer list limited to only what is made on site.

Travelers in southwest Washington often look for a mix of regional craft beer, casual food, and a place that works for different ages or group sizes. A stop here fits that pattern because the house-brewed beers are supplemented by craft beers from the western United States, giving visitors a broader tap selection than the nano system alone would provide. The high-gravity beers, when available, may appeal to drinkers looking for something stronger or more substantial, while the guest beers can be useful for anyone comparing styles from around the region. The extensive whiskey list adds another angle for visitors who are not focused only on beer, and the pub format makes the beverage program part of a dining visit rather than a stand-alone tasting room experience.

Practical planning is straightforward. Northwood is described as a family-friendly pub, so it is set up for dining as well as drinks. Seating options include the taproom, the bar with televisions, the patio, and a private banquet room that can accommodate up to 40 guests. Reservations are accepted only for parties of eight or more, and those reservations must be made by phone. For current beer availability, the taproom is the place to confirm the day’s pours, especially because the Little Dipper system is built for small batches and the selection is also supported by outside craft beers. Visitors planning a group event should ask about the banquet room, while smaller parties can focus on which seating area best matches the kind of visit they want.
