Regardless of weather, this is a GREAT time of year in Oregon because of the new wines and new winter beer releases. Last night I had the new Blue Moon winter beer. I don’t usually like Blue Moon, but that winter beer hit the spot. Hopefully, this Widmer Brrr will be pretty tasty. Even if it isn’t, the party looks good and they are giving away a lot of prizes..
