Our Story

Calapooia Brewing was founded as Oregon Trader Brewing in 1993, then was rechristened as Calapooia in 2006. In November 2019 Calapooia was acquired by wife & husband team Caitlin Prueitt & Chris Neumann owners of Vivacity Fine Spirits, a craft distillery originating from Corvallis, Oregon. Vivacity Spirits has moved its operations to Calapooia Brewing. “Our plan is to keep everything that made Calapooia Brewing special, including the beers & incredible staff.”
