but at the same time, its moderated, if someone makes a real stupid thing, like, quote on quote, the event has to be worthy, like i cant log on there and say theres a beer event because gary pie chizzle and dan fellin are coming to my garage in tower city pennsylvania, that will get deleted and ill look like a douche

its like the more littler ones, i dont know about littler ones but, i get the feeling that most of the oregon breweries outside of dechutes, are, more on, i dont know if i want to say the down low, but clearly as widely recognize as being as world renowned, but they dont get the attention

yeah, yeah dude, it is, but if you were to look at any of those, none of them seem like anything, because you look them up on beeradvocate, and they may have a, or two review, and you look at their websites, and i looked at their website today at work

like they had an irish, scottish stout, they right now are doing a red ale for the summer, those are the two chains we have in salem, other than that, there is a very small brewery that just started, they have one beer that you can only get in three supermarkets locally, and its alright, hillbilly, one of their beers is like hillbilly blond, but point being, thats what it is
they have bars, its all about live music, its about the scene at those places, there very, clearly hippy, but trying to be hip, like west coast

when i look it up on beer advocate to see registered places, oregon vs pa, oregan dominates us by a million, thats 300, pa almost has three times that, i think thats cause we have a bar every hundred feet
the other thing with oregon is we have um four million people

and almost all of it is within the willammete valley, you have portland, salem, and eugene, and oregon has the rest of the population, oregen has 3.8 mil, you guys have 12 mil, you have three times the people, so three times the beer

yeah that one actually looks pretty good, i was thinking of making a trip there, yeah i saw that, i figured id go there, cause albanys probably 20 minutes away, um, out of this list, eugene is like an hour, all the rest of them are 20, 25 minutes once you get out of town, its more of just the sighting of ok im gonna go there saturday, drink a beer here, grab a sandwich then grab a growler, i just wanna look at their site and see if they have something unique, like i dont want to go tehre and find out they have it next weekend, but some of these places are small, tahts clearly what there good at, and what the fuck i just realized, they have 7 somthing in the wllamete valley, thats dumb
