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 Wayfinder, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of grassy and piney hops, light herbal notes, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is forceful in the hop department, with plenty of piney hops, light resins, crisp grassiness, and a dry biscuity malt base. Piney, grassy, nicely assertively bitter finish. Excellent.

On tap at Wayfinder, pours a clear pale copper blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out grassy hops, light herbal notes, and biscuity malt. Flavour is crisp and grassy, with dry grassy hops, straw and grainy notes. Finishes dry, grassy, and straw-like. Very good.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours a really dark clear brow with orange glints and a moderate creamy tan head. Aroma of dark fruits, dark malt and hints of smoke or chocolate. Med plus body. Flavor matches the aroma. I'm finding definite smoke - course that could be something else, but what? Mouth smacking. I'm not getting much chocolate tho. For me it's extremely delicious.

16oz can at share. Golden pour, foamy head. Aroma is almost equal parts hops and malt, with an edge to the hops, plus some floral notes. Taste brings the hops up front, crisp, bitter, light citrus. Bitterness increases throughout for a nice bite at the end.
