Bridgeport's Imperial IPA: Hop Czar (Preview)
I went to Bridgeport Brewery in downtown Portland for a media preview of the Hop Czar. I had a few at the tasting and just got back from a friend's place where a few of us paired it up with the Bridgeport IPA. Verdict: Damn Awesome! It's part of their limited release Big Brew series, so their only available in 22oz bottles.

Thanks for the welcomes! I'm still exploring, but this space looks really great for hanging out with like-minded beer fans. I will do my part to by adding some content and also hanging around to field any questions about the Portland beer scene. If you're planning a visit out this way, let me know and I can give you the "don't miss" list depending on the amount of time you'll be in town.
Despite my initial fears, I pushed portlandbeer.org onto myspace as a way for the site to extend into a socializing atmosphere. I should have listened to my instincts, because it's the trashiest, worst-looking, horrible atrocity on the Internet. It met none of my needs (unless I wanted tons of webcam stripper friends), so I'm really glad that this place exists. Great people with a singular goal: enjoying beer through all mediums.
Glad to be aboard!
Cheers!
Matt
