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 clear, brassy gold with a large creamy white head. Aroma is a bit pale stone fruit over almost hidden bread. More than med body. Flavor is very light malt (pale) with a nice grassy/spicy bitterness and some notes that might be peach. Very dry. Nicely bitter. Excellent.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear gold with a huge foamy white head. Aroma of grainy malt with a touch of spice. Med body or so. Flavor is grainy/bready with some grass/spice. There's an actual malt characteristic (as in malt cereal). So it's not quite Czech. Must be German. The flavor is nice, and interestingly different.

16 ounce can from Tavour. Bright, amber orange pour. Large, pillowy beige head is enduring. Malty, toasted grain aroma. Bittersweet toasted malt flavor upfront. Earthy grain leads to peppery Saaz hops. Some caramel and buttery notes. Dry, bitter finish.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear, bright gold with a large foamy head that laced lightly. Aroma is mildlly bready, with grass and a spice note. Med body. Flavor pretty much matches the aroma, though the spice has quite a bite. Maybe a hint of grapefruit. Crisp and tasty.
