Hi there! I’m Riho, a craft beer enthusiast. I’m introducing Stemma Brewing Company, which I visited during my September 2025 Bellingham beer trip. This brewery combines playful character-themed glasses with proven World Beer Cup 2025 medal-winning quality.

What is Stemma Brewing Company?

Stemma Brewing Company is a craft brewery based in Bellingham, Washington. They brew a wide range of styles including WCIPA (West Coast IPA) and amber ales, and their amber ale won a Bronze Medal at World Beer Cup 2025. They’re also known for their unique glasses featuring cat illustrations.

Atmosphere & Facilities

The taproom has a bright, open atmosphere with incredibly friendly staff. The cat-illustrated glasses and unique character art for each beer add a collectible element to the drinking experience. It was bustling with locals when I visited.

Beers I Tried

I ordered the WCIPA (West Coast IPA). Refreshing yet satisfying, it went down incredibly easy. The citrus and pine hop aromas were vivid, with a pleasantly crisp bitterness.

West Coast IPA is characterized by minimal dry-hopping, instead relying on kettle and wort hopping for bitterness and aroma. The clear body and crisp bitterness are the hallmarks of WCIPA. Stemma’s version showed exceptional quality!

A Bronze Medal at World Beer Cup 2025 is truly an impressive achievement. Between the excellent beer and the unique cat glasses, this was such a fun brewery. I immediately wanted to go back!
