Deschutes Brewery Events All Weekend Long!

It is hard not to love beer. We think it is especially hard with the resurgence of the craft breweries providing a seemingly unending amount of options of flavors to hit the palette. Sometimes after a long day at work, your body just needs that quick oil change, whether it be a Wheat, Porter, Pale Ale, or a smooth Golden. One of the breweries that just knows how to hit the spot is definitely Deschutes Brewery. Back in November, Bend, Oregon-based brewers, Deschutes Brewery, announced that their Mirror Pond Pale Ale, Black Butte Porter, Inversion IPA and spring seasonal Red Chair Northwest Pale Ale would be available for sale in Ohio and Kentucky on January 24th. Well, they kept their word, and they are planning a series of local tastings and events this weekend from January 24-27 to introduce the brews to the area.

Here are the scheduled events:
