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.

Can from Tavour. Pours bright - but not light - gold with a transient creamy white head. Aroma has a chive, onion, garlic thing. Med plus body. Flavor is very chive, with some citrus and melon. Kind of dank result. Dry. Bitter. Very, very tasty.

Pint can. Pours a crystal clear yellow-gold color with a big sudsy white head. The aroma features breads and noble hops. The taste is mildly spicy with herbs, breads and some bitter pine. The palate showcases a cracker malt base and is full and satisfying. Finishes medium in duration with sticky resins. Overall: Decent helles.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear light gold with a nice creamy white head. Aroma is lightly bready with some light grassiness. Arguably med body. Flavor is malty/bready with more grassy nobility than most of the style. Light spice notes in the finish - keeps the mouth a bit tingly. Very nice.

16 oz can poured at Special Brews. Quite a dark copper appearance, plenty of loose foam head. Love the spicy malt notes here. Flavorful brew with caramel and spicy malts, with a grassy character underneath. Sharp taste up front with a smooth, clean finish. Bready tones on the back palate. Solid brew
