One of the owners of a new business in downtown Washougal describes that city as “loyal, friendly, family oriented and down to earth.”
Erin Bryant, her husband, Aaron, and their business partner, Matt Feldmar opened River Dogs & Growlers on Aug. 19.
Erin described it as a beer centric bar, that happens to sell hot dogs.
Boneyard Armored Fist Double CDA, Breakside IPA and Buoy Oatmeal Stout, from Bend, Portland and Astoria, Oregon, respectively, are currently on tap, but the selection changes. The beer tenders are also pouring Double Mountain Kolsch, from Hood River, Oregon; Ecliptic Spica Hefepils, of Portland; and Georgetown Lucille IPA, from Seattle.
Growlers can be purchased at River Dogs or brought in from elsewhere to be filled. A variety of bottled and canned beer, as well as 7-Up and Mexican Coca-Cola, are available to drink on site or to go. Hard cider options include peach, pear and lavender/black currant.
The current wine selection includes Wild Haven Blazing Red and Chardonnay, from Walla Walla, Washington. The bar serves customers 21 and older.
