Two Eugene breweries – Alesong Brewing & Blending and ColdFire Brewing – converge upon Function PDX for Eugene Friends Giving Portland Love. This dual brewery takeover of Function PDX in Northwest Portland debuted last night and continues through November 28th.
But it’s not just beer from Eugene making its way up Interstate 5 as four Eugene food purveyors will also be making the trek up over the weekend during November. First up is Bounty Meat and Cheese from November 5-7 that’ll be followed by weekend visits from Yardy Eugene, Paper Plate BBQ, and ColdFire Eats.
On the taps will be three beers from each brewery, alongside an assortment of bottles and cans for onsite consumption or to-go. The opening tap list consists of:
- ColdFire Czech Style Pilsner
- ColdFire Kite String IPA
- ColdFire Cumulus Tropicalus IPA
- Alesong French 75
- Alesong Terroir Project: Antiquum Farm
- Alesong Señor Rhino
Wines for the month will also be from Eugene with King Estate Winery, which happens to be located next door to Alesong Brewing, and Capitello Wines.
On November 17th, the Alesong Brewing team will return for the Portland release of its 2021 Fall Bottle Release of Rhino Suit and Coconut Rhino Suit and couple of other limited releases. Learn more about this release by clicking here.
