Beer in BEND OREGON

First off:  I am the world's worst blogger....
Betty and I went to Bend Oregon in early October

and had a great time!  We went to about 9 or 10 breweries.  Some of these were Rogue, Deschutes, 10 Barrel, Bend Brewing and Ninkasi Brewing.

The highlights for me were a Double Red at Ninkasi Brewing in Eugene Or.,

and a Bourbon Cask Ale at 10 Barrel Brewing in Bend Oregon...

The red was amazingly malting with generous hops

--but not overly done.  This was my first

Cask ale.  If you are unaware they

take a used bourbon barrel and age the beer

in the actual used bourbon cask...it was phenomenal!  See the pics wow, what a great trip!
