Deschutes Base Camp Week – Missoula

Posted by Radd Icenoggle on Oct 10, 2012 in Beer News | 0 comments

The Deschutes Brewery folks from Eugene, Oregon has descended upon our little town of Missoula with a flood of great new beers. The debuts include two fresh hopped options, the Hop Trip Pale Ale and the Catchin’ Freshies Fresh Hopped IPA (review coming next post), and the deep and complex Dissident (a blended 20% wine-condition and 80% cherry-infused sour ale, oh yeah I’m getting my hands on that one). Deschutes is promoting their beers and having a brewer available to heaps of noxious questions from yours truly. The Deschutes folks will be around through Sunday this week…run, don’t walk, to any of these events.
