Portland beer lovers get free rides, contemporary pours at Zwickelmania

If you want an excuse to toast to one thing, the craft beer neighborhood simply handed you one.

On Saturday, Feb.21, Zwickelmania, the annual, statewide craft beer celebration hosted by the Oregon Brewers Guild, returns with contemporary methods to carry beer lovers collectively. The title is a nod to the “zwickel,” the little German pattern port on fermentation tanks that lets brewers sneak a style straight from the supply.
