October 10: Killer Beer Fest (Barrel-aged brews, Belgian-style specialties)
Brewpublic is a great local blog (www.brewpublic.com) that leaves no beer behind in the quest
to bring thirsty Brewpublicans information on the finest craft ales, lagers, yeast culture, and all
things beer. In honor of its first anniversary, Brewpublic is celebrating with a Killer Beer Fest.
On Saturday, October 10 during Portland's Fresh Hop weekend, Brewpublic has curated a
line-up of never tasted before beers from the Pacific Northwest.
Barrel-aged brews, Belgian-style specialties, and other one of a kind and one-off brews will
be featured from more than 20 northwest breweries, including Cascade Brewing. We'll be
bringing 5 Barrel Thread, a one-only blend of five amazing beers:Â Bourbon Barrel Aged Quad,
White Port Aged Raspberry, Barrel Aged Triple, Apricot and Sour Pie Kriek. The blend may
sound a bit odd, but both Ron and Curtis say you'll be surprised by the lift and color found in
the final result.
The event takes place at Bailey's Taproom, 213 SW Broadway in Portland, from 4 pm to
Midnight. Bailey's provides a great environment for tasting these beers, which will be
offered in 10 oz and 20 oz imperial pints, as well as sample trays. For more information,
