Here’s the news in beer from around Oregon for Tuesday, the 24th of January. As usual, I’ll be periodically updating this post throughout the day, so check back often for the latest news. If you have news to share, please contact me and I can get that updated as well.

Chetco Brewing (Brookings) has a release party today from 4 to 9pm for their new Elmorado IPA: “Come try our brand new Elmorado IPA – a heartfelt tribute to a Brookings icon, the Academy award-winning film editor, Elmo Williams. It is a delicious blend of El Dorado, Mosaic and Chinook hops – fruity, tangy and rich. We’ll also have BBQ jackfruit sandwiches on hand -pulled pigless pork! You have to try ’em both!”

Cascade Brewing (Portland): Tonight’s Tap It Tuesday at the Barrel House at 6pm is featuring Jamberree: “A sour wheat aged in an oak wine barrel with 100 pounds of blackcap raspberries for 12 months, then blended with bourbon barrel aged sour quad. Rich and decadent, Jamberree offers jammy flavors of black raspberries, huckleberries and marionberries that finish with a smooth, round mouthfeel and light oak presence (8.1%).”
