Mike Hall, Bill Jaquish and friends have been brewing a wide variety of beers since October of 1996. In that time, somewhere between one and two hundred varieties have been tried – not all of which have made it to a bottle or tap for sale.

The company began in Pasco, but a few years ago Mike and Bill opened a Brew Pub on Benton Street in downtown Kennewick. In 2007 they added a new restaurant and pub on Clover Island.

Ice Harbor’s IPA was first brewed on one of the most infamous of days – September 11, 2001. Nine years later, it’s the first of what will be many of the company’s bottled beers taken by King Distributing throughout much of the state.

With a brewery, pub and restaurant Ice Harbor currently employs about fifty people. And as the company ramps up production, more local jobs will be created by the expansion.
