Brewfest season is upon us. Just about every weekend lately there seems to be some great beer-related event and it continues through Oktoberfest season. Actually, Bayern has already started brewing Oktoberfest beer in preparation!
Two upcoming events are the Oregon Brewers Festival this week (July 28-30) in Portland, OR and the Western Montana Fair Brewers Exhibition Friday, August 12 in Missoula, MT. Lead Brewer, Justin Lee, will be traveling out to represent Bayern in Portland. Dozens of breweries will be there to share their products, many beer-related businesses will also be there offering gear, live music... Let's just put it this way: its only one of the biggest Brew Festivals in the United States. Also, the Brewers Exhibition is the first brewfest as part of the Western Montana Fair. Planned to become an annual addition to the Fair, $12 gets you a wristband, some tokens and much more.
Recently, Bayern traveled to the Bitterroot Brewfest in Hamilton, MT, and the Big Sky Brewfest at the resort. The two German interns also represented Bayern at the brewfest inVirginia City.
Speaking of interns, this is the last week Jan Albers will be working with Bayern. His term is up and we will be welcoming another new intern shortly. We will have more about the new brewer intern and our new kitchen intern, working for Edelweiss Bistro, in an upcoming blog post. Stay tuned, but in the meantime, stop by and say Auf Wiedersehen to Jan.
Hope everyone is enjoying their summer. ~Prost!
