Returning this Saturday, December 8th, this mini alternative fest is an annual tradition. The fest celebrates the cold, dank days of Portland winter with a killer selection of warming ales from Amnesia Brewing, as well as some of their friends.
$20 will get you a 2012 signature festival GLASS mug, 10 tickets, a menu sheet, a sticker, and a free pint coupon from Amnesia's new Washougal location, opening in the beginning of the new year!

qualities but, with a Crystal hop dry hopping, citrus and pine sneak in
to create a complex and intense quaff.

OLD MAN GOWER'S WINTER TIPPLE
Winter Warmer
The recipe for this malty, caramel holiday beer was passed down to the brewer by Old Man Gower. According to the brewer, "It was Christmas Eve in the drunk tank. An old man said to me, 'Won't see another one.' And then we sang a song, The Rare Old Mountain Dew. I turned my face away, and he told me about this brew."
