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.

Slight haze, nice vibrant amber. Bready malt and quality spicy hop. Full malty body, but dryish in the finish with fun spicy hop.

Draught. Aroma is espresso, espresso, espresso but very good espresso. Malty taste with more expresso and a hop edge. Coffee and beer finish. Normally I prefer my pilsners unmixed, but this was good.

Tap at Wayfinder Brewpub. I didn't really get off on this much at all. Nice colour but quite heavy

On tap at Wayfinder, pours a hazy orange amber with a small beige head. Aroma is loaded with candied sweetness, resinous hop oils and light alcohol. Flavour is intense, with lots of resinous hop oils, booze, and perfume. Boozy and messy, as with many triple IPAs. Not bad.

On tap at Wayfinder, pours a cloudy bright yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out dank, citrus hops upfront, with floral notes and biscuity malt. Flavour is lightly dank, with piney, weedy hops, citrus and dry crisp biscuity malt. Nicely dank, with a piney dry finish. Excellent.

On tap at Wayfinder, pours a clear copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out loads of dank, weedy hops upfront, followed by toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with dank hops, some pine and crisp biscuity malt. Piney and dry. Nothing special, but well done.
