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.

Another fine Czech Pilsner from Wayfinder. Gold body with lasting white head. Grassy green aroma. Taste is bit of hop, then malt nice and full. Balanced crisp finish.

Aromas are malt, race, biscuits and musty. Flavors are similar to nose. slightly on the sweet side with enough carbonation and bitter to balance. Decent but nothing special.

Aromas are malt, race, spice. Flavors are similar to nose. Bittersweet with just right body and carbonation. Pretty good for a rice lager. I wish they could make Mexican lagers this good.

On tap at Chuck’s Seward Park, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Nose is dominated by allium, followed by subdued piney hop and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour likewise has plenty of allium, some pine, citrusy notes, and crisp biscuity malt. The Citra is just too dominant here for me, but the beer is constructed well—just not a fan of this hop expression.
