    Upright is doing deliveries now!! I am pretty excited by this as I can't make it out to their place on Saturday's, but it looks like they plan on doing this once a week on Wednesday's. I didn't make it in time for today's dropoffs, but will definitely plan on getting something next week.

    Baileys Taproom is doing delivery, and also growlers. 12 taps total.

    Now for the fun part. It appears that a large chunk of their vintage collection is available for delivery. And after perusing the list, i can say that the prices are more than fair. Some are outright steals.

    im pretty well stocked up but that list had me tempted.....

    One the beers listed on the site are 500 ml bottles of Chuckanut pils. Have not seen those before.

    If we start seeing bottles of their pils on a regular basis down here, that would be a game changer (IMHO).

    All they bottle is that size. Don't know how much extra distro they're doing during the shut-down, but it's not unreasonable to think that more might show up during the current times.

    At this point I assume distribution is still fairly limited. Stopped at John's today and they only had the kolsch.

    It seems like it goes in spurts; you'll see one style for a while, then another. I was at the Food Coop a bit ago grabbing lunch, and they had 16oz bottles of kolsch and New World Ale (which is worth a shot if you see it), so keep an eye out.

    Good to know. Thanks Terry.

    It's nothing short of amazing what you can find in Liechtenstein these days.

    F!

    That’s good news!

    Maybe they’ll even bring back Java the Hop. I don’t even like coffee, but that IPA ...

    I'm surprised they waited this long to decide to cancel. Organizers for the annual international pinot noir celebration cancelled their event nearly a month ago (they usually take place the same weekend).

    Must have just got it in. They just had the Kolsch on Saturday. Anyway, good to know. Looking forward to grabbing a bottle of it and the new/old world ale.

    Well, I've never heard of "old world ale" but my food coop has had the New World on the shelves lately. I suspect that's what you saw. I recommend it. Hell, I even gave it a pretty stellar review: https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/18879/318920/

    just went by MoC in West Linn. the selection of local made "light" beers was impressive. Counted over 12 different local made options of Pils, Czech Pils, Lagers, dry hopped pils, kolsh, helles , etc. etc. This doesnt even include lighter IPAs or saisons. good timing with the warming weather
