Our team has hustled insanely hard since our soft-opening last September to make Hammer & Stitch Portland's best new beer and brewery.
After months of working around the clock, making and perfecting recipes, we are beyond thrilled to announce our partnership with Point Blank Distribution -- and to celebrate this amazing moment, we brought their team in for a "masked" meet and greet as well as a thorough tasting of our beers.
Until this partnership with PBD, Ben Dobler and Cam Murphy have been going from store-to-store and account-to-account educating buyers and consumers together. Their goal was simply to get our brand out there and most important - get people to drink the amazing beer they have been making!
“I’m super happy to have partnered with professionals who know how to sell and represent a brand. After attempting to moonlight as a beer salesperson, I quickly realized I’m pretty sh**ty at it and frankly, I'm excited to focus my energy on growing the team and the company.”
- Ben Dobler
Having the whole team from PBD on-site was fantastic. We set up 6 tasting stations throughout the brewhouse for small groups (with masks on) to rotate between. Ben, Cam and Deb helmed the stations explaining about our STANDARDS as well as the specific beers they were tasting.
For anyone that doesn't know already, our STANDARDS are THE LAGER, THE IPA, THE WEIZEN, THE PALE, THE PORTER and THE AMBER. These beers are always on tap, always available and always amazing. Our STANDARDS are designed to be clean, simple, easy-to-drink beers that you can always feel good giving one (or 2) to a friend.
Learn about the STANDARDSIt was so great to have the wonderful folks from Point Blank Distribution in our Slabtown Taproom to taste through our amazing STANDARDS.
The greatest thing about Hammer & Stitch having a new distribution partner is more of our beer in more places all over Oregon. Stay tuned for updates to the beer finder - and if you spot Hammer & Stitch beers in the wild, post 'em so we can see 'em too!

These guys always take their game up a level for us and we genuinely appreciate their collaboration since before day-one. As always, we thank our team for countless hours in the taproom, brewery and office - without you we are nothing.
