As one of the prominent Black-owned craft breweries in the Pacific Northwest, Metier operates under the belief that great beer builds community. They focus on creating an exceptionally welcoming, diverse environment while producing top-tier, award-winning beers that stand out in a crowded market.

About Métier Brewing Company
Founded on the belief that great beer has the power to bring people together, Métier Brewing Company has become a trailblazer in Washington's craft beer community. Established by Rodney Hines and Todd Britton as Washington's first Black-owned brewery, Métier was created with a mission that extends beyond brewing exceptional beer. The name "Métier" reflects a calling or life's work, and that purpose is evident in every aspect of the brewery—from its award-winning beers to its commitment to building an inclusive and welcoming community.
The Woodinville brewery and taproom serves as the company's original home, where guests can enjoy a rotating lineup of handcrafted beers ranging from hop-forward IPAs and crisp pale ales to rich porters, lagers, and seasonal releases. The spacious taproom also features rotating art exhibitions from local BIPOC artists, live jazz performances, community events, and a welcoming atmosphere that encourages conversation long after the first pint has been poured. Whether you're sampling a tasting flight or settling in with your favorite beer, every visit reflects the brewery's philosophy that outstanding craft beer should be enjoyed by everyone.
That community-first approach has helped Métier Brewing Company become much more than a neighborhood brewery. It's a gathering place where creativity, culture, and craftsmanship come together, creating an experience that celebrates both exceptional beer and the people who share it.
