    This wasn't easy. I'm sure an Oregon one would be even harder for me.

    Reuben's is killing it right now with their IPA's and barrel-aged beers.

    Haven't had much experience with their BA stuff, but couldn't agree more about their ipas. They're really the only brewery in the NW whose hazy IPA's I enjoy on a regular basis.

    You're missing out. Personally I think their BA beers are all better than what Fremont is now doing.

    Whoa!!! That's pretty high praise. I generally consider Fremont to be the gold standard when it comes to ba stuff in the NW. I'll keep an eye open for Reuben's ba beer from now on. Thanks for the tip!

    I wouldn't go that far quite yet, but Reuben's Three Ryes Men was indeed spectacular.

    Indeed it is. By far the best BA barleywine from Washington or Oregon (IMHO). I see why it medaled at GABF. BBIS is also excellent.
