Raccoon Lodge and Cascade Brewing will tap a full 58-gallon barrel of their new Honey Moon, a collaboration with the PDX Homebrewers Club. Honey Moon is a deliciously sweet beer brewed with honey, then barrel conditioned.
They’ll also be serving up the new Gose Summer Wheat, a traditional German spiced summer sour with a hint of salt that weighs in at 5% abv and is the ideal beer for the season.

The Raccoon Lodge and Cascade Brewing are celebrating Oregon Craft Beer Month with their annual Beer, Brats & Music Fest! Come join the fun on Saturday, July 11th on the patio. The event will feature live music throughout the afternoon, including tunes by Juan & Ari, and headliner Black Lodge.
