___________

Oregon City Brewing Company grew out of a garage and transformed a once derelict carpet store into a thriving brewery. Oregon City Brewing Company aims to make great craft beer and build community in the town they love. A product of a thriving Oregon craft beer culture, the brewery was shaped deeply by Oregon City values: community, quality craftsmanship, and a spirit of innovation. Donating and sponsoring events within the community is central to the brewery. Prior to social distancing rules, every Tuesday, they sponsor a different local nonprofit or charitable cause and donate $1 of every beverage sold, raising over $25,000 to local charities and nonprofits over three years. The brewery plans to launch an ecommerce site and explore a digital loyalty program with their grant funds.

The announcement is live on our website, and we’ll be posting/ tagging on social within the hour! https://www.mainstreet.org/blogs/national-main-street-center/2020/06/12/announcing-the-winners-of-the-future-of-shopping-s
