This summer, I took a long-overdue trip down to‘Yeast Van’ to check out Callister Brewing and Doan’s Craft Brewing Company. Simply put, it was great to finally visit these two welcome additions to the neighbourhood. Cycling down to the area was a breeze with the two-way bike lane past the Cordova Diversion and over the new Powell street overpass. There are certainly other ways to get down to the area by bike, but coming from downtown, this was the best.

My wife and I have been travelling the Pacific Northwest and beyond in search of all things beer for about 15 years. We are frequent visitors to Oregon, which is the past and current State Of Beer in our opinion, and many others’. But having been to most parts of Oregon, especially Portland (to excess), we were looking for new pastures. Recently we took a train trip on Amtrak to the one large town in the region that we had never before investigated properly: Eugene, Oregon.
