Hi there! I’m Riho, a craft beer enthusiast. This time, I’m introducing Grains of Wrath Brewery in Camas, Washington, which I visited in October 2025 around the time of the World Beer Cup 2025 results announcement. While I was drinking at the taproom, one of the brewers came up and said, “That Imperial IPA is good, right? I made it!” — what an incredible experience!

About Grains of Wrath Brewery

Grains of Wrath Brewery is a craft brewery based in Camas, WA. While it’s a bit outside downtown Portland, it’s easily reachable by Uber. Amtrak also stops nearby, making the Amtrak + Uber combination an efficient and recommended way to get there.

While I personally prefer Breakside for smooth, easy-drinking West Coast IPAs, for bold, heavy-hitting West Coast IPAs, this place is the absolute best. And 2025 was a landmark year: a new brewing facility went live, celebrated with a beer fest featuring Ghost Town and Green Cheek beers. The crowning achievement: their Imperial IPA “Punchface Champion” won Gold at WBC 2025!

Imperial IPA, also known as Double IPA, is a style with more hops and higher ABV than regular IPA. Punchface Champion layers fruity aroma over heavy West Coast-style bitterness — it’s the ultimate expression of bold West Coast IPA!

Having the brewer come up and say “Great, right? I made it!” — that’s what craft beer travel is all about! Drinking a WBC Gold Medal beer fresh at the source taproom was absolutely unforgettable.
