Migration Brewing 'Fresh Outta Portland' Fresh Hop IPA Beer, Oregon

Migration Brewing’s Fresh Outta Portland Fresh Hop IPA celebrated the fleeting season of hop harvest with a bold, aromatic ale that truly captured Oregon’s hop-growing heritage. This now-retired release was a showcase of freshness, local collaboration, and vibrant hop character, brewed to honor the brewery’s Portland roots.

Product Details:

• Style: Fresh Hop IPA
• ABV: 7.3%
• IBU: 69
• Availability: Retired (no longer produced)

 Sensory Description:

Crafted with over 100 pounds of Indie Hops’ Strata variety grown at Goschie Farms, the hops were nitrogen-frozen immediately after harvest and added straight into the packaging tank for maximum intensity. Oregon-grown Chinook and Meridian hops deepen the resinous, piney core, while dry-hopped Mosaic provides tropical lift. Pale and Vienna malts support the profile with a medium body and a clean white head, allowing layers of citrus, berry, pine, and dank freshness to shine through with every sip.

Brewer’s Background:

Founded in 2010, Migration Brewing was born out of a DIY ethos and the belief that beer can both build community and fuel creativity. Rooted in Portland, Oregon, the brewery has grown into a neighborhood fixture, offering award-winning craft beers across multiple styles alongside welcoming pubs that embody the city’s love of good beer and good company. Migration’s vision is grounded in independence, local pride, and the joy of creating beers that make every pint meaningful.

Serving Suggestions:

Best enjoyed fresh at 45–50 °F in a tulip or IPA glass, Fresh Outta Portland was designed to highlight hop season’s fleeting vibrancy. It paired seamlessly with grilled salmon, spicy street tacos, or herb-crusted chicken, but was equally enjoyable on its own while soaking in a sunny day on the patio.

 Though no longer produced, Migration Brewing’s Fresh Outta Portland Fresh Hop IPA remains a memorable expression of Oregon’s hop bounty, embodying freshness, community, and the pioneering spirit that defines Portland’s craft beer culture.
