5th Annual Brewer’s Memorial Ale Fest
|The 5th Annual Brewers Memorial Ale Fest will be held May 20th – 22nd in Newport and will benefit Oregon Humane Society and other dog charities. Last year 3,200 people and 471 of their best friends attended the festival. The festival was created in memory of Rogue Brewmaster John Maier’s faithful companion Brewer, who passed away on May 20th 2006. Brewer grew up in the brewery and eventually rose to the rank of chairman of Rogue Ales. The dog-friendly festival is held inside the Rogue Ales Brewery and includes 30+ microbreweries, live music, doggy musical chairs, dog wash, dog dancing and celebrity dog look-alikes (Rin-Tin-Tin, Lassie, Benji, and of course, Brewer).
