Brews For New Avenues X Beer Scholar collab auction: a beer soaked weekend in Portland, OR!

Epic Beercation in Portland aka Beervana, featuring:

A two nights stay in NE Portland, a tasting of rare gems from the Brews For New Aves cellar led by Advanced Cicerone® Chris Cohen, and a beer soaked tour day out in Portland! It's the full BEER SCHOLAR EXPERIENCE!

If you win this online auction, you support homeless youth in the Portland area AND you get:

• Two nights in a beautiful NE Portland home with a hot tub. The house is all yours – it’s a 3BR / 2BA single family home with a sizable yard, on a quiet side street. The primary bedroom has a king size bed and huge walk-in shower, the other two bedrooms are set up as offices, but Chris has a large inflatable bed that can be used in one of them if you’re bringing friends.
• An EPIC beer tasting for you and three of your friends, led by Advanced Cicerone® Chris Cohen and featuring some of the rarest and most spectacular mixed fermentation beers you’ll ever get your hands on. These bottles are hand-picked from the best of the Brews for New Avenues and Brews Co-Chair’ cellars. The beers you’ll get to experience include:
• Cantillon - Cuvée de l’Espérance, batche II - Cantillon created this blend just for Brews For New Aves! Only a small number of these bottles exist. Cantillon requires no introduction.
• Sante Adairius Rustic Ales - Cohesion & Unity - One of the top US producers of mixed fermentation ales put this one together just for BFNA! It’s SARA’s Westly, their most sought after beer, aged in Frederiksdal cherry wine barrels...that’s just ridiculous!
• Nebuleus - Spruce for New Avenues 2023 - A true nano, Nebuleus is literally run out of a Portland garage. That didn’t stop them from winning OBA Small Brewery of the Year in 2022, almost as soon as they began announcing bottle drops on Instagram. This Silver medal OBA winner is a blend of gin and wine barrel aged saisons, refermented on fresh pineapple, sitka spruce tips, and meadowfoam honey.
• Ruse Brewing - Ruse for New Avenues BA Imperial Stout - A delicious beast-mode stout made just for BFNA. The perfect dessert to end the tasting!
• Plus TBD bonus bottles from Chris’ private collection and the private cellars of the Brews For New Avenues Co-Founders, James & Jeremy! Chris will also bring a few cheeses and other snacks to pair with the beers.
• A bottle of Cantillon Cuvée de l’Espérance II to take home.
• A tour of a couple top breweries and/or beer joints in Portland, OR. Chris will work with the auction winner to put together a fun itinerary, which will include a brewery tour of the spot of your choice, if so desired.
