Capital Market in Salem. Kind of a shady place.

We're staying inCorvallis, so it was the closest good beer store. We'll stop off somewhere in Portland on the way to the airport. Any recommendations?

Hosted a poker game at our place last night... Had the following:


Wow! Wasn't really sure what the expect here, but it was great. It was like a wheat beer mated with a pale ale and had a very tasty child...


Glorious as well... I'm a big fan of the "fresh hop" IPA's and this one didn't disappoint.

Had Firestone Walker Double Jack and Velvet Merlin on tap last night. Delicious.

Excited to head to Newport today to see Rogue.

Oh dammit!

Someone beat me to the 90 Shilling by Odell. But I will second the recommendation. Very tasty.

Any ideas on beIng able to find Pliny?

Mbole, your typing looks way too sober. Keep drinking! Looks like a fun trip.

do you want it in bottles or on tap? there are several bars in Portland that have it on rotation on the taps.
Lt. Joe Bookman

Lol auto correct is my friend. Plus, I still have to drive back to Corvallis.
Lt. Joe Bookman

Both. Bottles to bring back, but tap would be awesome as well.

If you have time to check out a few bars in Portland, you should definitely try out Horse Brass (tap list on their website), Roscoe's has a good selection (tap list on their facebook page), and Apex has a huge variety (tap list on their website).

They have all had Pliny at one time or another and seem to rotate it in often.

Btw, the coast is beautiful. Cape Pepetua was one of the most beautiful sights I've ever seen.

mbole, Horse Brass has Blind Pig on tap right now. When it runs out they are changing it to Pliny.

Awesome. We are definitely going to check them out. Hopefully people drink a ton of Blind Pig between now and Thursday.

Thanks again for your help Spartan.

Does anyone else think that Oskar Blues' Mama's Little Yella Pils tastes like peepee? I bought a 6 pack with excitement and couldn't even make it through the first beer.

Normally I can suffer through and finish at least one. Nope.

I'm surprised by that nervy. I love Dale's and Old Chub. I'll remember not to spend $12 on a four pack in the future.

Those might be good, but I would try the Yella Pils at a bar or grab a can from someone else before committing to it yourself. I also might be entirely alone in that opinion, in which case completely ignore me.
