The Oregon Brewery Running Series is excited to announce their eleventh season of 5K fun running and walking events that start and end at some of Oregon and SW Washington’s best breweries, cideries, and wineries. Fresh off the heels of their decade of running in 2025, they are back for 29+ events in 2026.
Combining the trends of craft beer and “fun runs,” the series is designed to showcase local breweries and neighborhoods throughout Oregon and Southwest Washington.
Participants walk, jog, or run approximately 3.1 miles, then enjoy a celebratory beer, cider, or wine, at the designated location. Everyone is invited to enjoy the day’s entertainment which includes live music, great food, prize giveaways and opportunities to interact with partners and sponsors. Everyone receives 1 complimentary craft beverage and a collector’s pint glass or seasonal swag item and other goodies.
The series also focuses on building community. With smaller crowds of 75 – 175 people, the Oregon Brewery Running Series events aren’t your typical 5k races that shut down major thoroughfares as speedy racers blast to the finish line. Rather, team members and brewery staff come together to create a casual, comfortable environment for runners and beer drinkers alike, celebrating healthy lifestyles and community.
It’s all about partnership
In addition to supporting local breweries, the Oregon Brewery Running Series is committed to helping the community through local nonprofits.
10% of proceeds from all Oregon Brewery Running Series events benefit local non-profits.
