Now, I depart from my usual drink on this fine day - for Jen is serving a Brown Ale, an Apricot (which Suzanne tells me is essentially the Kolsch with apricots), and the Vaga Blonde. I don't generally like fruit beers. Shall we recount the myriad numbers which I have tried in recent weeks, with little success?

This changed today.
Paired effortlessly with a salmon burger and corn on the cob, the Apricot by Captured by Porches is what I always hope for (but can rarely expect) from fruit beer. Not too sweet, lots of fruit up front, a fine apricot nose, clear and well carbonated, soft on the palate and full of flavor. Absolute perfection.
I'll be on the lookout for this beer again. And if you're smart, you will too. Find Dylan, Suzanne, Jen & the rest of the Captured by Porches crew at various locales around our fine city - including
"The Mobile Public Haus) is now open at the D Street Noshery, at 3221 SE Division Street, Friday (2 to 10pm), Saturday (2 to 10pm), and Sunday (noon to 5pm).
The newest beer bus (ex-bread delivery, 1946!) is stationed at the NW corner of NE Alberta and 23rd Ave (behind the Burger Bus) and is open Friday to Sunday, 2-10pm.
The big giant beer bus (with lounge inside) is now open at Krugers Farm on Sauvie Island (17100 NW Sauvie Island Rd) and is open Sat and Sun noon to five or six, and for the Thursday concerts 5pm to 10pm. Whew!)"
Don't miss this little brewery who could. It's been a tremendous year for them, and they deserve every moment of success.
