The latest issue of MIX Magazine has a great story about the various ways the beer and cocktail communities in Portland are drawing inspiration from one another. Our Brewing Up Cocktails events, the Kopstootje Biere collaboration between Bols Genever and Upright Brewing, and the cocktail beers created by Ben Edmunds at Breakside Brewing are all featured. I got to try Ben’s Sazerac beer a few months ago and it was delicious. Read the whole thing here.
One of our cocktails at Metrovino, the Averna Stout Flip, was also mentioned in article about beer cocktails in this month’s Beverage Media magazine. It’s here in PDF.
