    Guess I will be stopping by a little more often.

    Now if only they could get a new Foodmaster...

    God bless Jacob. I hope that the WM legacy becomes integrated into Breakside.

    Rock on. Congrats to him. Awesome guy. We just nabbed our first batch of WM stuff since Dan left for Widmer. Can't wait to try the 2xDH Homo cask.

    Awesome. Someone tell Jacob we don't have enough Jaywalker in the world, and he should recreate it.

    Jacob is a great guy, and amazing brewer. Does anyone know if Breakside's production facility will have a tasting room?

    Breakside is a brew pub and their beers are always pouring at the bar.

    Sure, but Breakside is way up north and I live way down in SE so I'm wondering if they'll pour at the new production facility in Milwaukie. There is a massive shortage of good beer once you get south of Woodstock.

    Ah, gotcha. Didn't even know there was a production facility in Milwaukie so your question confused me. I know the "shortage of good beer" feeling all too well. I live in St Helens. Not a goddamn thing out here.

    I got a sneak peek at the plans of the Milwaukie production facility/offices a few weeks ago and recall seeing a room called 'Dock Sales' with taplines off the walk-in cooler wall. I'd anticipate a set-up similar to Upright's or Occidental's "tasting rooms"...

    Good for him. I have noticed a decline in Walking Mans quality since he left.
