Brewers' Union!

I tend to brag about my brother a lot, ya know the one who runs a genuine British-style pub in Oregon, is a total smartie, and rides a Harley named Chromeo. I'm going to lift a few paragraphs from his blog right now, because interesting publicity things are going on for his pub, the Brewers Union Local 180 in Oakridge, Oregon. Follow these links and spread the word.

"First of all, we made the cut to be included in the National Geographic Geotourism MapGuide for the Central Cascades region that came out late Winter. Right there, on the downloadable pdf file, is the magical mention of the pub. Perhaps we won't get that much traffic from it, but the NG sure does churn out a snappy map.

Most recently, National Public Radio appeared in Oakridge to do a story on the town's efforts to reinvent itself. The radio show is called State of the Re:Union, and they have been traveling the country looking for stories. And found Oakridge, can you believe it. It was fun having the talented folks around for a week, and they captured the beautiful sound of real ale being liberated into a proper pint glass. The entire broadcast can be streamed or downloaded."
