Welcome to Initiative Brewing the Fortress, a spacious and family-friendly brewpub. We feature over 16 original craft beers on tap, a full bar, and tasty scratch-made pub food options that accommodate various allergens.  Come visit one of Madras’s newest gathering spaces and dining spots.

Experience the Difference in Every Bite

At our Madras location, just like our Redmond Pub, we take pride in crafting every dish with care. From house-made cheese sauce to our signature dipping sauces, we create our recipes in-house with passion. For the few items we don’t make ourselves, we partner with local Oregon businesses to bring you the best the region has to offer. We prioritize allergen-friendly dining, dedicating our fryers to gluten-free options so you can savor everything from crispy fries to our hand-breaded chicken worry-free. Our knowledgeable staff is here to help accommodate your dietary needs, ensuring a safe and satisfying dining experience. Browse our current menu below and taste the care we put into every meal!
