File this under smart moves, Hopworks Urban Brewery. Already the organic beer leader in Portland, and the leader in beer and bikes is in the process of opening a “nano brewery” that they will open to home brewers. The 30 gallon capacity systesm will be available for home-brew clubs six times during the year and solo home brewers for all of the other free dates. Applicants will be encouraged to use all Organic base malts in their recipes and in exchange will be able to brew at Hopworks, make use of their mill and just be around and absorb the vibe and knowledge that Hopworks already has.
