More beer-related activities? Holy suds, batman, I never knew Portland was so beer-oriented. Are any of these fabulous brews exported to foreign, yet neighbouring, countries by any chance?

XUP – Hmm, I don’t know about Oregon beer availability in Canada. I suspect Rogue might be available there (they seem to be everywhere).
Looks like Ottawa has some craft brewers too.
Pato – I’ve not forgotten the Organic Brew Fest – I’ll be blogging about it tomorrow, and I will be there Friday!

eric – I hope to make it out to Belmont Station before the Puckerfest is over; I’m quite fond of tart beers.
