Widmer's lineup could use some new blood.


I have not been to the brewery, but several people who I respect have told me that they brew some really good experimental beers there that never get bottled. I should have gone there by now, but it's hard to do that when there are so many other choices in the area.

Say what you may about Widmer Bros. brewing, they are very much responsible for the brewing revolution that occurred 30 years ago in Portland. The McMenamin brothers, the Widmer brothers, and a few others got the laws relaxed regarding breweries and brewpubs and craft beer took off.

I need to go, if for no other reason than to pay my respects to the Widmers...

I tried lots from their regular lineup years ago when I was first getting into craft beer. Even with the limited choices back then, there were usually better options. I have not had a Widmer Bros beer in years. It is good to know that they do make some good stuff though.
