Ninkasi Brewery


According to the Oregon Brewers Guild, there is an estimated 159 microbreweries in Oregon. We were able to travel across town to Ninkasi, the third largest brewery in Oregon for a tour and beer tasting. Marlene's granddaughter Zoe is the director of the tasting room at Ninkasi and set us up with a private tour, as well as free tastings of their most popular selections of beer. The tour showed the process it took to from wheat and barley until it is bottled to perfection and our tour giude Winter, knew exactly what we would want to see! We then got to sit in the crisp fall air and enjoy beer tasting compliments of Zoe!
