*some weeks there are some bike hipsters there, but mostly it's blue collar workers from the industrial district which is what you want. Similarly to why ghostrunners has a good crowd.
Fuck, inspires me to hit them up this week. A bit out of my way.

I feel like I’m basically drinking 81 percent Bend, PDX metro, and Pfriem these days. The remainder is Messican stuff and Coors Banquet for my pod @CFetters_Nacho_Lover
I wish they sold Manny’s Pale ale in a can so I could support Seattle more. I don’t like Johnny Utah as much.
Going to nip this is the bud right fucking now, I’ll contribute but needs to be legit…
None of this is legit, none. None, I have a lot to give, none of this ain’t in it.
This is like a farce. Either get legit or GTFO…. None of This left coast shit is even relevant

Kind of hate Seattle's offering.
Big Time will have some random new thing I'll try during the season.
Hellbent brewing and everything else is very forgettable.
It kind of makes sense that they would be inferior to Vantucky, the Peninsula, etc.

I don't hate Seattle, but I feel like I've been getting betting variety from PDX, Vantucky and Hood River.
Zoiglhaus and Occidental in PDX really excel at the Eurofag type syles that I like. Pfriem might be my favorite overall craft brewer in the PNW[/b].
Bend is a little too IPA centric for my taste but still good overall.

Pfriem's BA 12 oz. bottles are actually an amazing value. At less than a dollar per ounce, it's really hard to beat. Just had a cognac barrel aged imperial stout last night. Before that, the wife and I split a 750 of Sump from Perennial Artisan Ales (talk about a brewery that can do no wrong). Were I to do it again, I would have reversed the order of drinking, as the Pfriem was a little harsh after the super smooth Sump.
I don't really have an order to favorite breweries in the NW, but more a list of buy-on-sight if it looks interesting. That list is:
Structures
Wander*
Pfriem*
Ex Novo (new addition)
Cloudburst*
Fremont*
Ft. George*
North Fork (for sours)
*In all of these cases, the basic year-round beers are pretty ho-hum and not worth the money, but the special releases are a gold mine.
