Baerlic Brewing Co & Taproom in SE Portland
All ages are welcome
Free admission
WoodWorkerMarketPDX.com
The WoodWorker Holiday Market is a celebration of all things inspired, made and evolving from nature’s most honest material—wood. From furniture to housewares; chocolate to aged cheeses; jewelry to pizza; whiskey to beer, wood has inspired scores of artisan makers in and around Portland. This is a celebration of them and we hope you’ll join us this year.
Every winter Baerlic Brewing Co. brews our Old Blood & Guts American Barleywine and stows it away in bourbon barrels long enough to create a symmetry and interconnectedness among the beer and wood itself. This working of the wood, the evolution of liquid and solid, is the foundation for our ongoing WoodWorker Beer Series and the inspiration for The WoodWorker Holiday Market.
We’re also pulling a bunch of WoodWorker Barrel-Aged beers from the cellar to go on sale at 11am this Saturday at Baerlic’s WoodWorker Holiday Market!
Each time we package a WoodWorker beer, we set a little bit aside to lay down for a bit. We sampled through the entire vintage lineup and boy howdy are they tasting radical!! Some limited to a single case, so get there early!
