Hood River Hops Fest October 6th

This just in from Full Sail, a great brewery and supporter of so many in this industry. This is announcing one of several hop-harvest time festivities in my home state of Oregon, the Hood River Hops Fest, on October 6th.

Looking for an extra excuse to visit our Brewery and Hood River? Well mark your calendars hop heads, here comes the Hood River Hops Fest, Saturday, Oct 6th, 2007. The event is held in downtown Hood River, right across the street from our brewery on Columbia and 5th Streets. Noon to 9pm

This FREE event will be full of fun for the whole family. Beyond the great live music ranging from hot, soulful blues to Bavarian Umpah, the Hops Fest will have: sidewalk chalk art, face painting, food vendors, arts & crafts, and more. And needless to say - lots of freshly brewed BEER including our Lupulin Fresh Hop Ale and IPA!

While you are here, be sure to swing by for a pint, grab a bite, tour the brewery, or just soak up the view. Our Tasting Room and Pub is open daily @11:30AM. Brewery tours are available daily, free of charge at 1:00, 2:00, 3:00 and 4:00PM.

This is such a beautiful location and this time of year is a great time to visit. If you're in the Northwest and can make the event, you should do what you can to do so. I'm a bit sad to say I won't be there, but I hope you can tell me how it was.
