Deschutes Brewery’s latest Reserve Series beer, The Stoic, has finally arrived! Its five year journey from experimental beer at the Pubs to “ambrosia in a bottle” is complete. The finest Belgian traditions have inspired our contribution to the American Quadruple scene-a remarkably smooth, yet complex brew, featuring pomegranate molasses, dark candy sugar, Pinot Noir and Rye Whiskey barrel-aging, and a healthy alcohol content. The Stoic reveals itself this night. Join us to taste…and testify! Beer recipes, hop giveaways, special prizes, and flights of other Reserve Series fancy, like Black Butte XXI, XXII, and XXIII, guarantee an unforgettable evening.
As if that wasn’t enough…
Attention homebrewers…stand up and be recognized! Escort your proudest homebrew to Belmont Station. We will transport it to Bend for a thorough Deschutes Brewery Sensory Panel evaluation. Prizes will be awarded for best label, story, and overall flavor. The Grand Prize Winner will earn a day with a brewer in one of Deschutes Brewery’s brewhouses in Bend or Portland!

Pints of Base Camp’s official beer, Mirror Pond Pale Ale, plus crowd favorites Black Butte Porter and Green Lakes Organic Amber, will be available to slake mighty appetites. BBQ brats and various entertainments, like a one-man band, will lend a classic carnival feel to this fine summer afternoon. Tickets can be purchased for the “brew-dunk-tank” and… Black Butte XXII and XXIII Reserve Series flights. All proceeds go to Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF).
