The Little Woody beer list

Over on Bend Oregon Restaurants today, BOR posted the beer list for this weekend’s Little Woody barrel-aged beer fest (totally scooped me on this one); coincidentally, the breweries page on the Little Woody site is also now updated with a (slightly different) beer list.

The list BOR ran was from a Word document Lay It Out Events sent out; it’s more of the marketing piece, while the list on the site includes a few more beers. With that in mind, here’s a simplified easy-to-read list of the beers that will be available gleaned from the two sources; for more info on the beers, visit those pages.

    • Dubbel Woody: 7.7%, Belgian Dubbel aged in cabernet barrels 8 months

Interesting to note the number of sour beers this year; note that sour beer is an acquired taste, and it may well not be your thing, so make sure you know what you’re getting.

The Little Woody takes place this Friday, September 3rd, from 5 to 10pm and Saturday, September 4th, from noon to 10pm, on the lawn of the Deschutes Historical Museum.
