Portland / Oregon / United States
Craft Brewers Alliance, Inc. operates the Widmer Brothers brewery in Portland, Ore., and Redhook breweries in Woodinville, Wash., and Portsmouth, N.H. The Company distributes its award-winning products and those of Kona Brewing Company throughout the United States through a network of wholesale distributors and a distribution alliance with Anheuser-Busch, Incorporated. The Company was named as the seventh largest U.S. brewer based on domestic shipments for 2008. Redhook, at the forefront of the domestic craft brewing segment since its formation in 1981, is widely recognized for brewing excellence at domestic and international brewing competitions. Widmer Brothers was among the first brewers to introduce U.S. consumers to the American Wheat beer style largely through the popularity of its award-winning flagship beer, Widmer Hefeweizen, an unfiltered wheat beer typically served with a lemon.
