Four Year Double Mountain Fa La La La La Tasting

Double Mountain FaLaLaLaLa

For the first year since they’ve started brewing their beloved holiday seasonal, Double Mountain Brewery of Hood River, Oregon has been in limited supply of the hoppy Fa La La La La. Based on Brewmaster Matt Swihart’s Full Sail treat known as Wreck The Halls, the brew did not make its way into the Portland market. However, fans of the full bodied brew can get a taste not only of this year’s release, but also of the three years prior at a special vertical tasting slated for Christmas Eve at the Hood River brewpub. Here’s the details from the brewery; don’t miss out: Read More…

Fa La La La La Vertical Tasting @ Double Mountain

Double Mountain FaLaLaLaLaat the Taproom, 8 Fourth Street, Hood River
starts Saturday December 24 (Christmas Eve); good while it lasts. Doors open at 11:30am

Brewmaster Matt Swihart is feeling his holiday oats, and to celebrate, he’ll be breaking out an awesome four-year vertical of our Fa La La La La Winter Ale this weekend. Come Saturday morning, one keg apiece of 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 Fa will hit the Taproom taps. Tasters will be $2 for a 5-ounce mini-snifter and $7 for a full flight of four Fas. You’ll also be able to buy regular glasses & pints of all vintages (but no growlers, sorry). Once it’s gone, it’s gone, so beat a path out early to Hood River if you can.

We’ll also be tossing a special pizza for the holidays, “The Christmas Pie”, featuring Chop Butchery soppressata, fresh mozzarella and arugula pesto, yum. The bold flavors of the toppings should stand up well to the big hoppy goodness that is the Fa.

The Taproom will be open ’til 10pm on Christmas Eve and from 1-8pm for a special Christmas Day session. Happy holidays everybody!

16th Annual Holiday Ale Fest – 10 Must Try Beers

16th Annual Holiday Ale Festival

The five day extravaganza that is Holiday Ale Fest (HAF), you know, the biggest winter beer fest on the West Coast, is upon us. Beginning at 2PM on Wednesday November 30, 2011 and lasting throughout the weekend, this beer lover’s occupation of Portland’s Pioneer Courthouse square once again will bring merriment to the space beneath several heated tents.

Each day at HAF brings to light new select vintage and one-of-a-kind brews not to be missed. As a whole, the selection is quite daunting, with mostly above 7% ABV one-offs as the focus. Curator Preston Weesner, who also works as general manager at Cascade Brewing’s Barrel House, a boutique pub mongering some of the region’s most touted sours, has been calculatingly stowing away special kegs while encouraging breweries to formulate new and insightful styles. This year’s lineup is no exception to the ever awe-inspiring score of brews HAF has continued to build upon. Here’s ten beers that we greatly look forward to tasting, and if you are as fanatical about beer as we are, you might just want to seek out as well: Read More…
