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.

Taster at brewery. Pale, hazy golden, small ring of head. Aroma features light citrus notes, while taste heads off in a different direction with floral flavors. Handsoap and jujubes. Really nice.

Taster at Loyal Legion. What a lovely beer, gentle and full of flavor. Pours out an unassuming pale golden, but the aroma hints at the tastiness to follow. Mild maltiness, barest hint of hops, smooth and creamy. Truly a wonderful exampe of the style.

On tap at Bottleworks, pours black with a small beige head. Nose brings out vanilla, toasted malt and a little cocoa. Flavour is along the same lines, with light vanilla, some cocoa and toasted malt. Rich and wonderfully balanced - it's certainlt not too sweet. Excellent.

16 ounce can. Pours a dark mahogany color with a large beige head. Really amazing design. And more amazing, a salute to YOB! One of my favorite bands. A big malty nose, spicy, toffee. Sweet, toffee, toast, some cherry, light yeast. Very clean, great version of the style.
