Summer Solstice Celebration
Raccoon Lodge & Brew Pub, 7424 SW Beaverton Hillsdale Hwy., Portland
1:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Join us at the Raccoon Lodge & Brew Pub’s annual Summer Solstice Celebration on the back patio from 1 to 9 pm. The family friendly, all ages event features an afternoon of live music, including Cascade Brewmaster Ron Gansberg’s bluegrass-folk band, Black Lodge, and The Redeemed, a Portland-based Cascade Country band with a hint of rockabilly and swing. As always, there’s no cover charge.

Bring Dad for an early Father’s Day celebration – we’ll have delicious bbq meats roasted over an applewood fire as well as other food for purchase.

There will be a full barrel of our Summer Solstice IPA based on brewer Jon Berry’s recipe and made with Summit and Chinook hops. The ceremonial rolling out of this barrel on a handcarved wooden cart will take place at 5 pm.

We’re also excited to feature “The Four Goses of the Apuckerlypse!” This is a one-time opportunity to try and compare all four of Cascade Brewing’s Goses that have been stored away specifically for this party! We’ll be pouring last fall’s, winter’s, this spring’s and debuting this year’s summer gose: a classic style gose, this fairly light wheat beer was brewed with coriander and salt and soured slightly.

Bald Guy Brigade
Fifth Quadrant, 3901 N. Williams Ave, Portland, Ore.
2:00 PM - 6:00 PM

Join us at the Fifth Quadrant this Saturday for the Lompoc Bald Guy Brigade Party from 2 to 6 pm. We’ll be pouring our Organic Flower of the Gods and Organic Bald Guy Brown as a preview to the North American Organic Brewers Festival (June 25-27 at Overlook Park). For every pint sold of those two beers, we will donate a portion of the proceeds to Locks of Love. There will also be a special BBQ menu and folks can sign up for Bald Guy Brigade memberships, which get you a T shirt and 10% off food and drink for a year – such a deal! Amaze your friends and take your picture in the giant Jerry Fechter cutout.

Brewpublic's Microhopic
Saraveza, 1004 N. Killingsworth, Portland

We at Brewpublic are happy to announce a special mini-fest featuring four of Oregon’s best nanobreweries. This event known as Microhopic will be the first to showcase these fine brewers under one roof. In fact, it might be safe to say that most people in the Portland area have never tried most of the beers to be presented at Microhopic.
On hand, will be the beers and the brewers who made them. These breweries will include Big Horse Brewing of Hood River and brewer Jason Kahler; Rivergate Brewing of N. Portland and brewer Brian Frisch; Mt. Tabor Brewing of SE Portland and brewer Eric Surface; and Ambacht Brewing of Hillsboro and brewer Tom Kramer.

We are excited to invite you to come to this event featuring a rare and eclectic assortment of Oregon-brewed beers. This event will take place on Saturday June 19, 2010 at Saraveza, located at 1004 N. Killingsworth Street in Portland, Oregon. For more information, visit http://brewpublic.com/events Cheers!
