Brews for New Avenues 2019

[coach1]

I'm also most likely going to be proxy bidding for someone. Can't wait!

 

[Lurkaholic]

Hey folks - been a while! In fact, been years since I was last in Portland- or on TB!

In any case - I was lucky enough to snag a VIP and O&G session 1. Looking forward to seeing you all again!

Session 1 and good luck on the proxy. I'm gonna bug you up like a mofo!

Edit: also got VIP.

 

[Digita7693]

All Sold out except ga.
Took longer than I thought!

Yeah, took forever... 3 minutes

 

[Crusian]

That's like 50 times slower than last year! Lol

You're a sight for sore eyes

So I am going to talk my wife into a weekend in Portland for this event. What does the tap list for GA look like? A good clean pilsner an option? She is not a big beer person, but loves to support charity.

There’s a Pilsner Pavillion, so you will want for nothing.

I can guarantee you won't be disappointed. BFNA general admission is essentially everywhere else's VIP.

This is thanks to LoPo87 noticing we had a lot of lagers on our list a few years ago, suggesting we put them all on at the truck outside, and my love of alliteration.

We're always striving to make GA better. Making sure a lot of quality silent auction items are available, most of the VIP kegs tend to last through the start of GA, the live auction happens during GA, we have entertainment outside, and of course the Wall of Beer.

 

[skrip]

anyone planning any shares around the event? i'd love to finally meet some of you guys!

we'll be in town the 7th to the 14th

 

[iong516]

God damnit, I missed this again... if anyone has an extra oysters event ticket lmk

 

[JGlitz87]

Got my GA tickets.

We plan on flying in Friday evening and leaving Monday morning. Any suggestions for Air BnB (just me and the wife) or a nice dinner on Sunday night? We will for sure be hitting up Upright and Great Notion.

Hit up teddyarrowhead for Airbnb

Eem would be a great dinner. Thai/American BBQ fusion. It's unreal good.

What kind of food?
Not to speak for teddyarrowhead but I’d suspect that’s a no go during that weekend. It is so busy for all of us that might be a stretch. It also might be reserved for Larry Legend!

 

[JGlitz87]

We are foodies, minus seafood. Only thing we don't want is a steakhouse, coming from Dallas I have plenty of options. Our favorite meals in the past have been Hen of The Wood while visiting HF, a local steakhouse, and a local Moroccan spot.

 

[teddyarrowhead]

Yeah, my house is a state of disarray around Brews, and the room I Airbnb is occupied that week anyway.

Regarding a nice dinner, this list should just be a sticky post in every Portland-related thread. I've been to all of them except for the high-end vegetarian/vegan places. I'm sure they're great, but as an omnivore, I just can't wrap my head around paying that much for a meal without animal protein unless there is some seriously mind-blowing molecular gastronomy and/or fermentation wizardry involved. Anyway, there is a wide variety of cuisines and price ranges on that list, and feel free to shoot me a PM if you have questions about any of them.

 

[teddyarrowhead]

Hopefully some of you were savvy enough to put yourselves on the waiting lists... we released a few tickets today.

Also, for you Timbers & New Avenues fans: https://www.prideraiser.org/campaig...s-army-timbers-army-prideraiser-2019-Om1JYw4/

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwew ****.

Glad my wife spotted the waitlist option when we missed Oyster & Geuze tickets, excited that we'll be able to attend session 2 now!

 

[Digita7693]

A Thursday afternoon event with Raf and some others will be announced soon. Just as an FYI/teaser.

 

[JGlitz87]

I was planning to fly in Friday, but I may have to ditch my wife early and fly in Thursday if this happens...

If you get a bunch of alerts about this post it's only because I keep liking it and unliking it over and over.

 

[BeerandNoise]

Catch me at General Admission, down for a bottleshare though.

 

[falc0n26001]

Where’s the best place to donate? My friend brought some bottles by, they’re at work right now but I can bring them wherever. I take it we shouldn’t take them straight to New Avenues? I’m just a few blocks from there.

You can drop it off there.

Cheers!

 

[Digita7693]

Vips, you should have received an email.

Cheers

Good catch. That must have been left over from last year. Updated!

 

[teddyarrowhead]

Also, if some of you missed the email, we have some new incentives this year for donating - The Brews Cap & Cork Crew! Check out the details.

BFNA would be benefitted by broadcasting this more aggressively/on all media platforms. Also, 2 VIPs including myself didn’t receive the email about 7/6.

That's odd about the emails not getting through. I'll have the crew look into it. You can still email [email protected] if you want to attend the share tomorrow.

Regarding the Caps & Corks Crew - it was posted on the Brews FB page on 6/26 in addition to the email. As for IG, that platform isn't great for delivering a lot of info, not to mention trying to link to anything in posts, but perhaps we'll try to craft a post in a way that'll work. We'll do follow-up posts on FB as well.

 

[teddyarrowhead]

Hey everyone - if you're in town, come down to World Foods in the Pearl this Thursday from 8-11p. We're doing a tap takeover with Great Notion, Modern Times, Ruse, and Upright. Brews Chef Connor doing some tasty food to pair. All proceeds go to New Avenues.

Also, we're starting to tease the live auction items on the social medias. First one just went up on FB (the 3F experience is back!).

 

[PDX]

Is there anywhere in Bend we could possibly drop a case off to donate?

We do not have any drop-off spots in Bend at the moment. If you can find someone coming into Portland, we can work something out, though.

Doing lots of posts on the books and the grams leading up to the event if you care to follow:

Living in a world of regret atm for not getting dinner or O&G tix despite being stoked about VIP
