Oregon Craft Beer Month

We’re at the end of Oregon Craft Beer Month and we asked Kourtney Nelson, owner of The Growler Guys located in Southeast Portland, to talk about a few of her favorite Oregon Beers.

Here’s what she had to say:

It’s an easy 4% ABV and super refreshing! We heard her speak recently, and she said this is one the toughest beers that she brews to get the right balance!

Another favorite for me this time of year is the India Golden Ale Imperial IPA from Ben Edmunds and his crew at Breakside Brewing. It’s light and smooth with the perfect tropical hoppiness.

Finally, The Commons makes a White Farmhouse Ale called Fleur de Blanc that I really enjoy. It has rose & elderflower–they describe it as soft, crisp and floral–exactly perfect for a summer evening!”

Leave us a comment and tell us some of your favorite Oregon Beers!

Cheers!
