Description
WAYFINDER BEER is a new brewery project in Portland, Oregon. We have transformed a 8,900 square feet of a century-old brick warehouse in Portland's Central Eastside into a classic destination for beer and food lovers.

Wayfinder is the brainchild of Charlie Devereux (co-founder of Double Mountain Brewery), Matthew Jacobson (co-founder/owner of Sizzle Pie, Quality Bar, and Relapse Records) and Rodney Muirhead (co-founder/owner of Podnah's Pit and La Taq). Our mission: to bring simple and authentic pleasures of the highest quality to the Rose City and beyond.

Guests to Wayfinder will find enjoyment in our 110-seat taphall, or outside on our massive patio. Our menu of handcrafted comfort food features deliciousness from a custom wood-fired grill. We're using our four-vessel, 10-barrel brewhouse to create world-class lagers and ales for onsite enjoyment and wholesale distribution.

On tap at McKay’s Taphouse, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out big tropical fruity hops, some pine, and light citrus. Flavour is bright, showcasing the Mosaic beautifully, with piney, semi-tropical hops, a hint of dankness, and a dry biscuity malt finish. Not sure what the experimental hops do, but this is just a great Mosaic showcasing. Excellent.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear bright gold with a moderate, transient white head. Aroma is a light combo of bready malt and citrus pith. Med body or nearly. Fairly dry tho bready malt is definitely present. Bitter enough for balance. The citrus seems to include kumquat. There's more citrus, but it's hard to parse. Definitely not lemon or lime tho.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear bright gold with a moderate, but transient white head. Aroma of pale malt supporting some summer fruits in a light way. Med body. Malt is clearly present; overall the lager is juicy with summer fruit aspects. Fairly towards dry and definitely bitter. For flavor I'll go with peach, pear and dry twigs. Nice lager.

Pint can pours with a crystal clear pale gold color body that supports a full near white head of foam. The aroma offers up inviting clouds of tangerine, clementine and grapefruit as well as a thin layer of mango. The taste delivers clean tangerine tangy hops rimmed thinly with a bit of grapefruit hop like bitterness. It then develops a modest degree of juicy tropical fruitiness with mango and honeydew. This ends bone dry and thin creating a nudge to go ahead and take another sip. Crusher for sure.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear light gold with a moderate white head. Aroma of rice and light lime. Less than med body. Flavor is quite spicy. Lime leaf and what seems to be chili doesn't entirely obscure the rice. A "hot" drink!

Can from Tavour: pours gold with white head. Bready nose and grassy hops. Good malt character. Hits the notes of a clean and refreshing czech pils well.
