Eugene Brewery #4 – HopValley Brewing Co

HopValley Brewing Co. is not actually in Eugene, but just east of I-5 and slightly north in the town of Springfield.  Having no clue where I was going, I called HopValley and the kind girl gave me turn by turn directions.  The drive was less than 10-minutes.

I quickly browsed the beer menu and selected four tasters; Stepchild Red, Impeller Pale Ale, Alphaholic IPA and Vanilla Porter.  All were tasty and very drinkable.  The menu looked awesome, but I had just eaten, so I elected to have some dessert.  The Vanilla Porter went very well with my dark chocolate covered cheesecake.

I wish I could spend more time in the Eugene area, but I needed to head east to Crescent, where I would spend the night, wake, say goodbye to some of my hosts and head to Portland for my afternoon flight home.
