(OR) Oregon is Best in the Northwest ... again

Another year has come and gone and another year is filled with breweries and brewpubs dusting off their shelves and wiping down walls to make room for more medals. For a state that has self-proclaimed themselves ‘Beervana’ the Evergreen state is living up to their haven status. All told Oregon brought home a total of twenty-two (22) medals. Some of the names on the list are familiar while others seem a bit out of place.

     Below is a medal breakdown of each brewery the beer, the medal, and style they won under. Congratulations go around for each and every one of the breweries for their efforts.

Cheers
