Portland Has Beer.

I was on a trip to Portland, OR this week on biznass. So I drank some beer! Here's the scoop on the sampling I did:

1 - Hopworks Urban - 12 Beers - All organic, 2 casks, pretty good solid options

2 - Hair Of The Dog - 6 Beers - All good, "Greg" was a no hops w/ squash, good barleywine

3 - Deschuttes - 7 Beers - Decent selection, decent XPA and gluten free. Split across 2 visits.

4 - Tug Boat - 6 Beers - Wasn't on my list, decent bock, good atmosphere, only ok overall

5 - Rogue - 9 Beers - Good hazelnut ale, chocolate stout = hershey bar, more than i could taste alone, nice waitress brought me a free sample of red and a portland beer map

Stats: 3 Days, 5 Breweries, 40 beers
