    Making the Case for Beervana

    July 1, 2013 - Fred Eckhardt

    The United States now has more breweries than any other country in the world, more than 2,400, according to the Brewers Association. We are opening small breweries about as fast as they are being closed in Germany! More than 10 percent of U.S. breweries are here in Oregon.

    A Tale of Two Ales

    March 1, 2013 - Fred Eckhardt

    As winter wends its way into spring, the Beer Enthusiast goes from dark to amber in the search for the great beer. After the bock beers have been enjoyed, and the weather warms, it is time to begin the search for copper-colored beers, a time to get back to basics. What we need is a... View Article

    Magic Beer—The Annual McMenamin Drink Tank

    November 1, 2012 - Fred Eckhardt

    Portland brothers Mike and Brian McMenamin have built themselves a modest empire of wondrous proportions. They operate some 56 (mostly historic) establishments. They include about 23 breweries and brewpubs, a vineyard, a really good winery and two excellent distilleries (one—Cornelius Pass—built in a barn, using age-old, traditional construction and distillation techniques). There is even a... View Article

    Forest From the Trees

    July 1, 2012 - Tomme Arthur

    It was the first of a lot of things: my first trip to Chicago, my first chance to see Wrigley Field. It was the first time I had beers with author Michael Jackson; it was my first authentic deep-dish pizza and late-night Chicago Red Hot. But most importantly, it was my first taste of bourbon...

    The Care and Feeding of Your Favorite Publican

    July 1, 2012 - Fred Eckhardt

    In the old days, not the long-gone old days, but the recent old days, when craft brewing was new, I made an interesting discovery. I noticed that when I visited Seattle and sampled Oregon craft beers on draft, they didn’t seem to taste as good. I concluded that they did not travel well, hence the... View Article

    A beer writer reflects on his 20-year career as he prepares for the end of the world May 1, 2012 - Harry Schuhmacher

    It isn’t necessary to imagine the world ending in fire or ice. There are two other possibilities: One is paperwork, and the other is nostalgia.—Frank Zappa This will be my last column, as the Mayans have predicted that we are all to experience a painful death in December 2012. Unless the Mayans are lying, we’re... View Article

    In The Beginning, One Of Our Beverages Had Disappeared

    March 1, 2012 - Fred Eckhardt

    I  started to write about the good taste of beer, as opposed to brewing beer, in 1978. I had been brewing and writing about brewing since 1969. And I had been struggling to publish the Amateur Brewer since early in 1977.  A local delicatessen asked me to write a column about beer for their monthly... View Article

    Change We Can Believe In

    January 1, 2012 - Harry Schuhmacher

    As I write these words, my oldest son is upstairs packing up his clothes to head off to college tomorrow.  It’s hard to believe that I have a son going to college. I’m only 42.  And not only that, he’s going to the same college I attended exactly 24 years ago today, the University of... View Article
