Ice Harbor Brewing Company is a brewery founded in Pasco, Washington in 1996 by two former workers at the Hanford Site. They entered this venture after buying the Meheen & Collins brewery.
The brewery (prior to 2024) was located in what was once a grain mill at 206 N. Benton St. in Kennewick, Washington. This building served as a brewery, and as a brewpub. The menu offered sandwiches and various fare as well as the brewery's creations. The brewpub had recently installed a beer engine, which allows the beer to be pulled from the cask, rather than pushed by carbon dioxide gas. The brewpub was believed to be the only Tri-City brewpub that used such a device.
Ice Harbor Brewing opened its second pub, which is still currently located at the Port of Kennewick's commercial building at 350 Clover Island Dr. on Clover Island in Kennewick, in late October 2007. The Marimna features much of the same brews and fare at the Railroad Avenue brewpub, but without the homebrewing inventory.
The brewery has no since moved to 10 E Bruneau in Kennewick, WA, and no longer offers homebrewing inventory.

Balanced between "hops" and "HOPS!" this is a deep golden, medium bodied ale. Lots of late addition kettle hops along with heavy dry hopping give this beer a fruity flavor and aroma, and a medium malt backbone.
Modeled after the Kölsch beers of Germany, this smooth, soft-bodied golden ale is lightly fruity with a dry finish. A hybrid lager/ale yeast and extended cold conditioning contributes to the overall flavor profile. It has a lower alcohol content.
Hops: Mt Hood, Crystal
