Forbes is talking about beer. Even better they’re talking about beer in Bend. In their top ten list of breweries worth a visit, Deschutes Brewery comes in at #5. From their list:
Oregon is a mecca for craft brew enthusiasts, so it’s no surprise to find Deschutes Brewery nestled in the picturesque mountain town of Bend. The brewery makes bold, experimental batches like The Abyss dark stout, as well as some of the industry’s most beloved brews, like the Black Butte Porter. Open-to-all-ages tours are offered daily, where all the details of brewing are revealed. Afterward, guests can pick up bottles at the gift shop or try the brews on tap at the nearby pub.
Stay: The Oxford Hotel in downtown Bend has a sleek design that still fits with the town’s folksy persona (think organic bedding and wood cabinetry).
This has been a big couple of months for Deschutes, with the re-opening of the downtown pub and expansion into Missouri. It’s great to see them growing and getting additional recognition. You can see the full Forbes top 10 list here.
