Deschutes Brewing coming to PDX

Yep, that's right folks. Our beer rich city is just about to get beer-richier. The folks from Bend at Deschutes Brewing are building a new facility right here in good ole Stumptown. The location is going to be in a new building at 13 & Lovejoy. Do you think Bridgeport is worried? They will be right next door. Just myself, i would much rather enjoy a Mirror Pond rather than a India Pale anyday. But that's just me. I think it's in the Bend water. That's what makes Deschutes brew that much better than anything else. Maybe I'm just Oregon biased. What do you expect, growing up in PDX, where we have more craft or micro brew companies per capita than the rest of the US of A. With so many great beers to choose from, it is often very difficult, especially when you are standing in front of the beer case at your local grocery store and your g/f has had a long day, her feet hurt and she just wants to go home, but you can't decide which delicous brew to choose... Oh well, her feet won't fall off, just take another minute and choose wisely. Odds are, at least in PDX, that beer is gonna be good. Anyway, I can't wait until the Deschutes spot opens, I definately will spend some lunches there this summer. Bring it on Bend. I will be there, ready for your challenge...
