Description
Oakshire is a is a community inspired small batch brewing company privately owned by the family and friends of our company’s founders. Oakshire operates a small, 4,000 square-foot production brewery in Northwest Eugene, as well as the Oakshire Public House in Eugene’s Whiteaker neighborhood and the Oakshire Beer Hall in the Concordia/Cully neighborhood in Northeast Portland.
Eugene was chosen as Oakshire’s location in part due to the accessibility of clean, soft water from the McKenzie River. Since 2013, Oakshire Brewing has partnered with our local land conservation group, the McKenzie River Trust. One percent of Watershed IPA sales revenue is set aside for the protection of local watersheds in the territories where the beer is sold, helping to preserve the clean water that is so vital to our community and our beer.

4oz pour at Jack Rose DC. Pours a translucent, mahogany amber with some creamy, off white head. Nose is interesting, coconut, vanilla, some rum raisin ice cream, malt, caramel, a little booze but not over powering. Flavors are nice, mostly vanilla, caramel, brown sugar, rootbeer, coffee, brown bread, some candy, some milk chocolate. Oily finish. Fairly well blended but still a bit hot.

4oz pour at Jack Rose DC. Pours a hazy, mahogany amber with some sudsy, white head. Nose is interesting, plum, cherry, vanilla, some barrel, some red grape, dried raisin. Flavor has a lot of cherry, a little jammy, some bread crust, a bit of booze, more like cheap wine than grain alcohol. Tart, oily finish. Unique.
