The Rye Beer Fest, a celebration of the revival of rye beers, will be held at EastBurn (1800 E. Burnside., Portland, Ore.) during Portland Beer Week. The fest will take place on Friday June 7th, from 4-10 p.m. and will feature 19 rye beers. Two of the beers being featured are special collaboration beers. One was brewed by 10 Barrel Brewing Company in collaboration with Taplister and the other was brewed by Hopworks Urban Brewery in collaboration with Taplister. All proceeds from the sale of the collaboration beers will be donated to the Children’s Cancer Association.

In addition to rye beers, there will be rye cocktails and rye food. Entry to the event is free. The pricing for the beer (half pints and pints), cocktails and food is still to be determined.
