New Oregon Breweries

This information was obtained from the Oregonian:

New Pubs: Max's Fanno Creek Brewpub (in Tigard); Christian Ettinger's new pub, Hopworks Urban Brewery, or the HUB, on Southeast Powell Boulevard; two new Laurelwood locations -- the new brewery/restaurant in the former Sylvia's on Northeast Sandy Boulevard (the brewery will open before the restaurant/pub side) and an airport location; Rogue Ales is also planning a pub at PDX; and Wild River just added a Medford pub to its four other Southern Oregon locations. Also, Belmont Station moves to new digs on Southeast Stark Street with a small pub/tasting room where they'll serve anything they sell. Oh boy!

New Breweries: This year's buzz brewery, Ninkasi Brewing Co., soon moves to permanent quarters in Eugene with a tasting room; Double Mountain Brewing will open in 2007 in Hood River; WildFire Brewing Co. will start brewing in Bend soon and is Central Oregon's sixth brewery; Beer Valley Brewing Co. will start brewing in Ontario in early 2007 with a pub to follow thereafter.
