In the Microbrew Capital of the World

[davideinstein]

Or so they say.

Timbers are out of town, sadly enough. But I'll be here until Sunday. Nap time then heading out to taste the brews here in Portland.

Anyone ever been? Live here?

Come up to Seattle. Everything's just a touch better here than Portland. Especially the soccer team.

Yeah, been to Portland several times. Pretty cool city, but Seattle is better in almost every respect (except the whole sales tax thing)

I'll concede that one. Right about 10% here.

For once I'd like to go get a $1 cheeseburger and not have to bring a dime along ffs.

Portland is cheaper, better transit, more hip and closer to Cannon Beach.

We wanted to do Seattle, but no time.

I thought Denmark was the micro-brewery capital these days?

In the US we like to refer to the best things in our country as the best in the world.

California. California. Cali-for-ni-a.

In the city.

Well, I mean, it's true more often than not.

Apart from the beer...

Err, Seattle is by far the superior city. Portland is where you go when you can't go to Seattle.

And American beer is sh*te.

Europe has better macrobrews, but not microbrews.
