For my last beer selection, I wanted to highlight some of the fantastic work by the breweries here in Oregon.

Honorable mention goes to BridgePort Brewing (HopCzar IIPA, Blue Heron Pale, and Ebenezer Winter Ale, among others) and to Widmer Brothers (their Drifter Pale Ale is a tremendous complement to the ballpark/barbecue).

In the end, I'm going with Deschutes Brewery's seasonals. Many of you may be familiar with their flagship Mirror Pond Pale or their Black Butte Porter.

My last night at Glacier featured several cold bottles of Twilight around the campfire: a perfect end to a great day. Their JubelAle and Red Chair Pale are also excellent, highly recommended.

IP, fantastic stuff. TP awarded.

Edgar, I'll loan out Ziggy for the occasional guest appearance by U2. Let's meet for a beer at my place to hammer out the details.

Consider it done.

just keep one of those Deschutes in its point.

Lastly, we're going with a name change.

Lucky's Bar and Grille was always a place-holder, until I could make my selections. Plus, we don't grill(e) anything here, so I think we need something that more accurately sums us up.

As a nod to our eclectic musical lineup, and our selection of potables, we're changing our name to The United Nations.

We hope you'll all come on down to the UN, and raise a glass to world peace.

ROOM 112 YELP!

Quote

Room 112: Where the Playaz Dwell


I came into Room 112 in need for a drink.

Recently, I had accepted a position at a psych ward for truly challenged patients. Having recently received my Master's from Harvard, I figured I came in thinking I knew everything - but I soon found out that was DEFINITELY not the case!

Upon arrival I was assigned a truly unique case: A man who believed - and who had convinced several of his peers - that he was an extraterrestrial from another planet. I KNOW! I KNOW! But here's what's the crazy part, you guys: He might really have been an alien.

In the following few weeks he displayed some incredible fetes: From strong predictions to the ability to easily solve what I thought were unsolvable equations to some really weird stuff that I can't explain.

Throughout this time he kept stating that he would be departing on July 27th.

My favorite Professor at Harvard, Doctor Howard, once told me to focus in on all the little details. And Doctor Howard, if you're reading this right now, THANK YOU!

Because it was under Doctor Howard's advice that I focused in on the specific date my patient had been citing. And through his tutelage I was able to focus in on that date and figure out that something traumatic must've happened to my patient on July 27th!!! Due to Doctor-Client practices I can't reveal exactly what the resoulution was, but I was right, and finally my patient was at peace!

But then, the strangest thing happened. On July 27th, we found him in his bed: IN A CATAONIC STATE AND COMPLTELY UNRESPONSIVE! Was it just a fluke? Or was he really an alien who needed to find inner peace before returning to his home planet in a second life?! I DON'T KNOW!

Anyways, I went to room 112 - I told bar tender Bill Murray my story while he was serving me a good variety of beers and he couldn't have been nicer. And then Prince showed up and played like a 6 hour set w/ the Roots backing him. That was incredible!

Beer was awesome, beef on a stick was suprisingly great and I had so much fun playing skee ball horse races with Jim James from My Morning Jacket.

That being said, I didn't like that they didn't use more eco-friendly napkins.

I'd give it 2 stars




Entertainers: The Roots, MMJ, Prince
Specialty Drink: Jameson & Ginger Ale, Rum & Coke, Whipped Cream Vodka & Orange Soda
Beers: Smithwicks, Magic Hat #9, GL Christmas Ale,
 Wilco Tango Foxtrot Beer, Coors Light, Sunset Wheat
Bartender: Bill Murray Bouncer: Blade
Specialty Food: Beef on a Stick Activities: Skeeball Horse Racing

Yep. version will feature Bailey's, the hot version will be traditional.
Getting close, Lucky.  I will have to bring a few "Nips" and doctor it up to my specifications, though. (sneaking booze into a bar, not alway an easy task!   ::) )

I'll save you some time googling, Doctor Howard is completely made up. Though the story is certainly a real (very terrible) movie.

Right answer, Lucky,  Never tell an old lady she can't have what she wants.  An irate old lady is not a pleasant sight!

Should also mention Ninkasi Brewery as well, based in Eugene (U of O). If you like hoppy beers, you'll like much of what they have to offer.
