Meet The Brewer: Widmer

Tomorrow night at the Green Dragon Widmer Brothers Brewing will be bringing a selection of their brews. I hope they bring some of their beers that you can only get a the Gasthaus Pub.

Here is a list from their website of their beers:

Core Lineup

Widmer Hefeweizen

"The Widmer legend – cool, cloudy, and totally refreshing!"
Broken Halo IPA

"A devilishly bold, heavenly smooth India Pale Ale."
Drop Top Amber Ale

"A creamy, flavorful Amber that’s super smooth & easy to drink."
Alt

"Assertive hop bitterness and flavor."
Widmer Root Beer

"Smooth, rich and bold - we make our own old-fashioned root beer!"
W'08 Crimson Wheat

"A dark wheat with a mild spicy hop aroma, clean finish, and slight dark caramel sweetness."

Changing Lineup

Russell St. Ale

"Fruity ester aroma and flavor with a balance of robust malt and notable hops."
8 Grain Brown Ale

"A nut brown ale with a clean finish and easy to drink."
Dortmunder Lager

"Light, Crisp, Refreshing"
O'Casey's Irish Stout

"Creamy with a pleasant dry roast character"
Half Nelson IPA

"Made with imported hops from New Zealand. Fruity berry like aroma and flavor with significant yet smooth bitterness."
NW Red

"Notable hop aroma and flavor. Deep red in color. Stealthly alcohol content."

It's Been a Long Time

Forgive me for I have not blogged. I have been really busy building the Portland Beer Wiki. I just wanted to give a quick update. You can also check out the new blog for this project. I am looking for help in creating the ultimate Portland Beer resource. Cheers.
