Deschutes Brewery announced the locations for its popular “Base Camp” weeks, which bring specialty beer tastings, beer and food pairings and a celebration of craft beer goodness to cities around the brewery’s distribution territory.

What exactly is Base Camp? It’s a place where Deschutes Brewery offers beer fanatics a spot to “pitch a tent” of sorts – and find their footing with the cornerstone of Mirror Pond Pale Ale.
Deschutes takes over with a series of activities such as beer dinners, tastings, music, total tap takeovers and pint specials to help fans celebrate a love of craft beer. Not only is Mirror Pond Pale Ale highlighted, but the brewery also pulls out the stops with other year-round favorites and specialty brews that can’t be found elsewhere.
