Crux Fermentation Project is a Bend brew pub and working brewery.  The strong colors of the copper barrels give an additional ‘zip’ to any photo shoots, or production.  Located in a former transmission shop, this site has an industrial feel to it.

Centrally located in SW Bend, there is a parking area in front of the pub, and also on the street leading to it.  Additional area for outdoor games and group gatherings is located to the side of the property.  Numerous firepits and large trees make this a picturesque area to shoot.  

Distant mountain views also create strong visuals particularly at sunset.
