After graduating from the University of Oregon, a good friend of mine moved to Seattle to begin his career.  An avid UO Duck football fan, he found it frustrating to find a local bar to watch his Alama Mater play on Saturday.  He knew he couldn't be the only one, so he developed: University of Or...

Went to Hopworks Urban Brewery - HUB - the other day.  And I'm totally impressed.  Not only is it the first eco-brewpub in the Northwest, they've done it fantastically well!
