Bend Brewing Co.

Sour Outback X-This beer underwent a spontaneous secondary fermentation while aging in one of our oldest bourbon barrels. It pours dark red with the sweet aroma of toffee and dried fruit. The flavor is chewy tart cherries and raisins with hints of bourbon and oak. It ends with chocolate espresso bean dryness. 9.5% ABV

Block 15 Brewing
Super Nebula, Imperial Stout-This creation is aged in fresh emptied bourbon barrels and matured on house-roasted cocoa nibs, giving it a deep black brew with a brown creamy head.

Sour Girl-A cherry wheat ale that we have inoculated with lactobacillus and have been aging in the bourbon barrel on additional Oregon cherries. This beer was created in honor of the Flanders style of beer.

Cascade Lakes Brewing Co.
Imperial Stout-A full-bodied, robust version of the style, utilizing eight specialty malts and several months of aging in Jim Beam oak bourbon barrels to provide the complexity, warmth and balance of this dark meal.

Blonde Bombshell-The winner of the Source Weekly’s Best of Central Oregon reader poll, Blonde Bombshell combines subtle malt and wheat flavors with a delicate Liberty hop aroma.

Deschutes Brewery
Berliner Weisse-Deschutes’ version of the original sour beer, which was known as “Champagne of the North” by Napoleon’s troops when visiting Germany. This is a mouth-puckering sour and extremely refreshing Berlinerweisse, but done in Deschutes’ own style. 5% ABV, 18 IBUs

Mirror Mirror-Mirror Mirror is a double Mirror Pond barley wine that was aged in a variety of wooden barrels (including American oak, pinot, port and bourbon). It was then blended and dry hopped, giving it a big, warm, malty flavor with complex oak undertones and esters. 11.5% ABV, 51 IBUs.

McMenamins Old St. Francis School
Barrel Head-A twist on the popular Hammerhead ale that’s aged in a Hogshead whiskey barrel for more than four months and then cold conditioned for another two months. This hoppy ale has unique flavors with a hint of fruit is present in the nose as well but the finish is all dry and woody.

Dark Ages Stout-A dark beer aged for five months in our Hogshead whiskey barrel and then another five months of cold conditioning. A year in the making gives this stout some complex and robust flavors, including a whiskey aroma that plays alongside the sweet and dark flavors of the stout.

Silver Moon Brewing Co.
Merlot Cask Amber-This is the popular Hounds Tooth Amber aged six months in a French merlot barrel from local vinter Volcano Vineyards. The American-style amber picked up several complex flavors from this rich French oak.

Winter Moon Bourbon-The Winter Warmer was a hit amongst Silver Moon loyalists so the Bend brewery filled a barrel full and let it age. The fresh bourbon brings out the finer flavors of this hoppy and malty complex winter style IPA. 7.4% ABV

Three Creeks Brewing Co.
Beechwood Blonde-The signature Knotty Blonde aged in beech wood that will be light and sassy with a remembrance of the coast on a beautiful summer day.

Woodcutter Barleywine-A blend of Three Creek’s Firestorm Red and a 2009 barley wine aged in a Pinot Noir barrel for nine months. Also, the brewery will be serving one barrel of its special PPR (Patio’s Private Reserve) sometime on Saturday afternoon, so keep an eye out for that.

Adam’s Malty Bomb brewed by Full Sail Brewer Adam Bulson, “Adam’s Malty Bomb” is pray for powder porter that’s sure to make our mountain snowy white all season long.
Porters are Adam’s favorite beer after a day on the snow, and he thought releasing his own version preseason would be a good omen for a great winter.
Adam’s Malty Bomb is a robust porter with a big body and lots of dark, caramel/toffee flavor, yet it won’t weigh you down like heavy snow. It’s hopped with just enough hops to balance out the malts, and finishes smooth with no sharp edges. Bomb’s away! (ABV 5.3% IBU 41)
With Adam’s brew comes a new feature of the Brewer’s Share series—each brewer will pick a local charity of his or her choice to receive a portion of the proceeds from the sales of their beer.
Adam chose Hood River Adopt-a-Dog – Hukari Animal Shelter, so every keg of Adam’s Malty Bomb benefits local animals in need.
