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.

Pour is a near black with a large mocha tan head. Aroma is sweet molasses and some caramel malt. Flavor is more caramel malt with a minor roast. Finish is a bit sweeter than I would have liked. Decent but not the best of its kind. A little too much sweetness and not enough roasted malt.

Lots of sharp pine in this. Nice body, bitter piney end. Big hops on the nose. Solid cold IPA. Clear golden pour with pretty good head. Can.

Aromas are dark malt, roast, tree bark. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, loses the bark, very slightly more sweet than bitter or carbonic tang. Add a touch of cocoa. Very good drinking beer.

Pours a clear, brilliant, golden orange color with a medium large, thick, fluffy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Light lacing and faint legs.
Flavor is slightly sweet with light rice and bready grain notes. Low bitterness and hints of alcohol. Moderate peach and rooibos notes. Light floral notes.

Overall, a solid rice lager with the tea adding some interesting flavors and complexity without impacting the body of the beer. Easy drinking and refreshing.
