You don't have enough craft beer drinkers there. I drink most of my beers out, and I know the bartenders, but I usually don't run into many people I know. And I'm a social guy - I'm always talking to someone at the bar.

I think that's due to the volume of people, and the fact that I have so many places in my rotation...

That is true, but you also have to consider that the Portland metro has like twice population in comparison to the NOLA metro area. Also, we have significantly less craft beer events than y'all do up there. When a good one comes around, you can expect that the "regulars" are going to show up. Even though I expect Zwanze to be well-attended, I just expect to see the usual suspects.

You sure do like to compare Portland and the NW to down here a lot. It's pretty much apples and oranges. Like Yeezy said New Olreans isn't a very big place, big city features and problems with a small town vibe. I will disagree with him however on Zwanze day, it's more of a regional event than a local event. Sure you still will get some of the regulars in there but it's nothing like a normal beer event.
