Trivia question for you. What was the first beer Deschutes Brewery introduced to the beer market back in 1988? Black Butte Porter, Cascade Golden Ale, and Bachelor Bitter were the first three beers the brewery released, but Black Butte Porter holds the distinction of being the brewery’s first flagship beer.
Fast-forward to 2018 and Deschutes Brewing has grown to be one of the largest independent breweries in the nation (ninth largest in 2017), recognized for its ubiquitous beers like Mirror Pond Pale Ale and Inversion IPA, but also for it’s less-common, more adventurous beers like The Abyss and The Dissident.
On Saturday, June 23rd, from 2:00 – 8:00, Beveridge Place Pub host a 30th Anniversary Bash to commemorate Deschutes Brewery’s big milestone. The party will spill out into the parking lot, featuring music, food, games and prizes. It’s an 80s-themed event so wear you best 80s gear to win prizes. Also, get ready to hear some great 80s music provided by DJ ABV (inside the pub).
Of course, Beveridge Place Pub will offer a special selection of Deschutes’ beers, both the classics and some new releases. Beer will be flowing everywhere, inside and out.
