Cider Summit PDX

The longest days of the year are upon us, as are the summer festivals dedicated to drinking and leisuring in the sun, when it makes an appearance.

Portland Weekend Amusements (June 14-16, 2013)

Welcome, once again, to your weekend itinerary. I can’t think of any better way to spend a weekend than with books, pride, and a good old fashioned pagan festival (with beer garden!).

Portland Weekend Amusements (June 8-9, 2013)

Portland Fruit Beer Fest

This seems as good a time as any to re-start the ol’ blog – two of my favorite annual events take place this weekend – the Portland Fruit Beer Festival and the Milk Carton Boat Races!

ScanFair 2012

Celebrate the sights, sounds, tastes and traditions of a Scandinavian Christmas at the 28th annual Portland ScanFair, presented by the Scandinavian Heritage Foundation, this Saturday and Sunday, December 1 and 2, 2012.

Holiday Ale Festival 2012

Over the years this has come to be one of my favorite beer festivals – the beers are exceptional, the sprawling tent is cozy and warm, and I never have to worry about how I’m getting home – it takes place right on the bus mall!
