I got out Saturday to Zwickelmania with Jeanette and Rick. We started with a special breakfast at the Green Dragon at 10 am. We were on the fast track from there that allowed us to tour eight different breweries in five hours. The breweries we visited were Harvester Brewing, 715 SE Lincoln St.; The Commons Brewing, 1810 SE 10th; Lucky Lab Brewpub, 915 SE Hawthorne Blvd; Green Dragon/Buckman, 928 SE 9th Ave; Cascade Brewing Barrel House, 939 SE Belmont St.; Base Camp Brewing, 930 SE Oak St; Burnside Brewing, 701 E. Burnside and Hair of the Dog Brewing Co., 61 SE Yamhill St.

This is a Zwickel.
