When I think of the political scene lately, the irresistable urge to drink heavily comes to mind. While I don’t think that’s the impetus behind BlueOregon founder Jeff Alworth’s comprehensive Insiders Guide to the Oregon Brew Festival, both blue staters and red state types will benefit from the results of his obsession.

Jeff offers up not one but “two printable (.pdf) checklists: one with breweries sorted by style, and one sorted by state”, and provides a detailed list of four don’t miss beers, and another dozen worth considering. And with 72 beers under the big white tent(s)? There’s got to be something there for you to rally around (along with several hundred other like-minded souls.)

Beer - it’s a uniter, not a divider.
