We had a great time with the Oregon Heart of the Valley Homebrewer’s for their the 27th annual competition again this year. The turnout was very impressive and our atrium was full of brewer’s and their families. Congratulations to Thomas Anderson, Best of Show winner with his “Wee Nessy” Strong Scotch Ale!
