Oregon Garden announces participating beer & cider tap list
for 11th annual Oregon Garden Brewfest
Northwest’s most scenic beer festival also makes the ideal gift for Father’s Day
SILVERTON, Ore. — If you’re looking to give the greatest Father’s Day gift ever, then plan on a trip to the Oregon Garden Brewfest (#OGBF). This year’s event, which will take place on Father’s Day weekend June 19 through 21,
will feature more than 135 handcrafted beers, ciders and mead from
nearly 70 different breweries from across the nation (a complete list is
pasted in at the bottom of this release), along with local food;
activities including shuffleboard, skee-ball and foosball; and live
music on two stages from a dozen regional bands.
Located in the historic town of Silverton, just an
hour’s drive from the Portland metropolitan area, the Oregon Garden
Brewfest allows visitors to stroll the 80-acre botanical garden with
beer in hand. Event hours are Noon to 11 pm Friday & Saturday, and Noon to 5 pm Sunday. The event is for ages 21 and over on Friday and Saturday; minors are welcome all hours on Sunday, when they can create their own wooden coaster for Dad.
Admission ranges from $15 to $50, but
all admission packages include a souvenir tasting glass and a number
of tasting tickets; see ticket pricing and purchase in advance at https://www.eventbrite.com/ e/oregon-garden-brewfest-2015- tickets-13448706443.
A full glass of beer costs four tickets, and a
taster costs one ticket. Additional tasting tickets may be purchased
for $1 apiece. Designated drivers pay a cover charge of $5 and receive
a bottle of water. Parking at The Oregon Garden is $5 per car; free
shuttles are available from various locations in Silverton.
A dozen regional bands will play on two stages, beginning at 5pm on Friday and Saturday. Friday’s lineup features Alder Street, The Jackalope Saints, Casey Neill & The Norway Rats, Jamie Wyatt, Water Tower and Deadwood Standing. Saturday’s bands include Will West & The Friendly Strangers, Balto, Transcendental Brass Band, Redwood Son, Ural Thomas & The Pain and The Tumblers.

The fourth annual Oregon Garden Brewer’s Tasting Dinner will take place on the eve of the festival, June 18 at 7 pm.
This six-course dinner, which features small plates paired with local
beers from six area breweries, is attended by participating
brewers, industry insiders and a few lucky beer aficionados; a limited
number of tickets remain and are available on the event website.
