Press Release
Eugene’s Alesong Brewing & Blending is set to host its first Alesong & Friends event for the new year, this time with special guest Fremont Brewing of Seattle, Washington. The brewery’s “Alesong & Friends” event series offers an intimate tasting and conversation with brewers, vintners, farmers, and other like-minded producers that have provided inspiration for Alesong.
Technical Director, Robert Fulwiler from Fremont will be joined by Alesong co-founder and production manager Brian Coombs to guide attendees through a selection of three limited and unique barrel-aged beers from each brewery and discuss Fremont’s brewery and barrel program.
“Fremont has been one of our favorite brewers of bourbon-barrel-aged beers for years and we’re thrilled to host them for this unique event” says Alesong co-founder Brian Coombs. “We’re always really impressed by their stouts of course, but you really can’t sleep on anything coming out of their cellar!”
The event will be held at Alesong’s Countryside Brewery on January 15th in a single, limited-seating session at 12pm. Tickets are $50 each and include a curated cheese and charcuterie board to pair with the six beers. Tickets can be purchased through Alesong’s website: https://www.alesongbrewing.com/events

ABOUT ALESONG BREWING & BLENDING: Alesong Brewing and Blending is a small artisan brewery based in the heart of Southern Willamette Valley wine country with a second tasting room in downtown Eugene. The all-barrel-aged brewery crafts unique and small-batch beers, brewing both wild and non-wild styles that span the flavor spectrum. Once the beer in barrels has matured, the team samples and selects each barrel individually to blend. Paying homage to old-world Lambic blenders and artisan winemakers, Alesong believes that the final, balanced blend of a barrel-aged beer is much more complex and satisfying than the sum of its parts or each individual barrel by itself.
