Start with lunch at Bear Republic in Healdsburg.
Maybe do a hike at Armstrong State Forest.
Head over to Russian River in Santa Rosa.
Then continue south to Lagunitas in Petaluma.
Great day.


Bear Republic is pretty good.
Russian River is too much of a hipster scene for me.
Lagunitas is really chill.
All in my backyard too.

Depends on whether you want to know which Brewery I enjoy going to, or which brewery I enjoy drinking beers from. I will stay local here in Oregon, since everything else is spoken for.

My favorite all-around is Block 15. They do everything well - Stouts, IPAs, Sours, Saisons. They have a solid Brewpub on site and a great restaurant called Le Caves - fantastic place to go if you like Belgian beers. It's in Corvallis, though, so it is a bit of a drive. Their biggest problem is that they don't produce enough beer...

For sours, a trip to the Cascade Barrel House is a real treat. De Garde is really good, too, but they are in Tillamook, so it's an an hour's drive.

For IPAs, I like Barley Brown's, Boneyard, Laurelwood, and Breakside.

Barrel Aged Ales - Hair of the Dog

Overall brewpub experience - Deschutes, Crux Fermentation Project, 10 Barrel, Cascade, pFriem, and Base Camp are all really good. I know I'm leaving some off this list.
