$3 pints of Good Life beer with Curt, Pratt, Jeff. Look for Mountain Rescue Dry Hop Pale Ale, Descender IPA, Pass Stout, and Scottish Heart Scotch Ale on tap. Scottish Heart Scotch Ale is truly a unique beer, partly due to the fact it is the first collaboration between 2 Central Oregon breweries.

goodness.

McMenamins Thompson Brewery & Public House
3575 Liberty Rd S
Salem
503-371-2945
Brewer: Jen Kent
11am-close

The Barley Cup is a contest for brewers where a random drawing determines the brew style to be crafted. For the patrons and judges, this ensures a full range of beers from which to choose. In keeping with tradition, the Capital City Homebrewers Club determine the overall winner of the Barley Cup trophy. The proud winner goes on to represent McMenamins at the Holiday Ale Festival in downtown Portland in December. Brewers are on hand to answer questions, give tours of the brewery and plead their cases for their own brews.

The Thompson house itself was built in 1905 by Spanish American War veteran Fred Thompson for his father Franklin, a Civil War veteran, and his mother Maria. It is rumored that some of the long-passed Thompsons still hang around, so keep an eye on your beer.
