I rarely announce Meet the Brewer events because--well, mainly because others do it more reliably. But this is something that caught my eye, so I'll flag it for my fellow mild-lovers:
pdxgreendragon Meet the Brewer -Thurs, 6p- Ted Sobel of Brewer's Union Local 180, pouring Welsh Mild Cwrw 3.6% ABV & Cumbrian Moor Porter 4.9% ABV
I may have to make a pilgrimage.
You may buy me a pint. Sparkler please.
ReplyDeleteWait, it's YOUR beer. Now I have to buy you a pint? Maybe the Green Dragon's house brew, which looks to be the anti-mild.
ReplyDeleteI would rather make a pilgrimage to Oakridge. I reckon my wife needs to visit her friend in Eugene soon.
ReplyDeleteJack, based on what I know from reading Ted's blog, these beers are generally single-issue affairs. I could be wrong, but you may not have another chance to try them. In any case, Portlanders should avail themselves of the ready access.
ReplyDeleteFWIW, Ted was also kind enough to drop off a different keg for us at the Station. It gets tapped at 3pm on Friday, so if you haven't had your fill on Thursday night please come and help us kill the firkin.
ReplyDeleteIt does need to be killed. I have to retrieve it on Saturday so I can take it home and put more ale in it.
ReplyDeleteBoth beers were very good. I couldn't detect the peat in the Mild as much as I tried, but my friend picked it up easily.
