I visited this wonderful Williamsburg brewery in May of ’08. Another great story of a guy with a dream and here they are in 2009 as one of the top 40 breweries in the country. Pennant Pilsner is great but my favorite is the Local 1. You should check out their book, “Beer School.”
Ninkasi
Ninkasi Brewing is located in Eugene, OR, and has been brewing high quality beers, in the Northwest style, since 2006. The Eugene location gives regional access to some of the highest quality brewing ingredients in the world, including pure cascade mountain water from the McKenzie River, Eugene’s sole municipal water source, and hops from the Pacific Northwest. Our focus is on flavorful, balanced beers, and we enjoy what we do. We are solely a production brewery, which allows us to fully devote our resources to creating the best beer possible. The overwhelmingly positive response we’ve received since or inception makes us very happy to be brewing in a region where people love great beer.
