SUMMARY:Organic Craft BrewFest
DESCRIPTION:New Organic Craft BrewFest to take place June 23-25 at Overlook Park \nThe Organic Craft BrewFest will debut June 23 through June 25 at Overlook Park\, 1599 N Fremont St.\, in Portland.

The event serves up 60 organically brewed products\, with styles ranging from ciders to cream ales\, ambers to lagers\, and fruit beers to IPAs. All the products have been brewed using a minimum of 70% organic ingredients\, per USDA guidelines. \nAdvance packages cost $25 per individual and include the festival cup\, 15 drink tickets\, a wristband\, and free re-entry all weekend (with wristband & cup). Packages at the door cost $25 per individual and include the festival cup\, 10 drink tickets\, a wristband\, and free re-entry all weekend (with wristband & cup). Advance packages are on sale now through Bold Type Tickets at http://www.merctickets.com/events/43891630/organic-craft-brewfest. \nDesignated drivers may purchase a ticket for $5 at the door\, which includes handcrafted Crater Lake Soda and a bottle of water; designated drivers are not allowed to consume any alcohol.

Products can also be made with organic ingredients\, meaning the product contains at least 70% organic ingredients\, excluding added water and salt. Organizations that sell less than $5\,000 worth of organic products annually are not required to get certification; many of the products at this festival fall into this category. \nThe Organic Craft BrewFest benefits the Timbers Army 107IST (Independent Supporters Trust)\, whose mission is to support soccer in and around Portland\, from the grassroots to the highest professional level. The 107IST is a member-based non-profit organization open to anyone who loves soccer\, the Timbers/Thorns\, and Portland. \nView the list of participants\, buy tickets\, volunteer\, and learn more at OrganicBrewFest.com.

SUMMARY:Hood River Kriekfest
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual Kriekfest Celebrates Cherry Beers (and Ciders) in Oregon’s Hood River Valley on June 24 \nFamily-friendly event takes place on “the Fruit Loop” among cherry orchards \n \nAfter last year’s inaugural Kriekfest sold out\, it was clear that for 2017 the event would have to return cheerier and cherrier. There will be 30 sour cherry beers\, ciders\, and wines including 11 new brands this year\, The largest celebration devoted exclusively to barrel-aged cherry beverages will take over the rural town of Parkdale 60 miles east of Portland. Highway 35\, which runs from the riverside town of Hood River\, is nicknamed the Fruit Loop for its fertile farms including abundant cherry orchards. The host venue\, Solera Brewery\, offers breathtaking views of iconic Mt. Hood and the surrounding orchards. Kriekfest 2017 tickets are now available at merctickets.com/go/Kriekfest. They are $25 [including 8 tickets for 4-ounce pours (starting at 2 tickets) and a commemorative glass] online and limited to 750. The event is expected to sell-out again\, but if available admission will be $30 at the gate (4945 Baseline Rd.) on Saturday\, June 24\, 2017. A package that includes transportation from Portland to Parkdale and back via the Brewvana bus is available online for $100 and includes 3 extra tickets. A limited number of rooms are available at Hood River Inn when mentioning “Kriekfest” until June 1. Designated drivers and minors will be admitted free. \n  \nKriek\, Flemish for cherry\, is a four-centuries-old style of spontaneously-fermented\, lambic ales aged on cherries (pits and all). World-class examples imported from Belgium for Kriekfest include Brasserie Cantillon\, Brouwerij Drei Fonteinen\, and Hanssens Artisanaal. Cherry-growing regions are natural for such beers so it’s no surprise the Hood River Valley’s Belgian-inspired breweries make excellent krieks. The breweries in the Gorge featured at the fest include hosts Solera plus Logsdon Farmhouse Ales\, Pfriem Family Brewers\, and Double Mountain Brewing . Combined with the fecund Willamette Valley\, Oregon cherry farmers harvest over 13\,000 acres of cherries. \n  \nAmong the first beers created at Solera in 2012 were wild ales with local cherries. The festival was initially conceived in 2013 when beer writer and festival producer Brian Yaeger and brewmaster Jason Kahler were chatting in Solera’s back patio. The celebration of cherry-laced libations is family-friendly with live music and delicious food. Attendees are encouraged to camp in the valley for the weekend and explore the breweries\, cideries\, and farms throughout the Columbia River Gorge. Follow updates on Facebook at facebook.com/Kriekfest\, Instagram at @BrianYaeger or @SoleraBrewery\, and on Twitter at @Kriekfest.
