An item in yesterday’s Bulletin Business section caught my eye: "FivePine to get boost from new brew pub, restaurant" is the article’s title, though it’s behind the Bulletin paywall so you can’t read it online.

I’ve always thought it would be fun to do, but typically they run in the … Continue reading
I thought it’d be fun to write up a guide to places to go if you’re going pub hopping on St. Patrick’s Day. My only criteria? Pretty loose and arbitrary; any place that I think of as primarily where you would go for a drink—not necessarily to eat. And it … Continue reading

I’m getting all beery on these last couple of posts, I notice. Just a note to list the current tap lineups at two of our breweries (in the spirit of Deschutes’ Now Pouring page): Silver Moon Brewing and Bend Brewing Company. Over at Silver Moon, there is: Hound’s Tooth Amber … Continue reading
