TGIF! We're ready to sit back and have a pint - care to join us?
Today at Sidebar, we'll be serving Port Barrel Aged Brewdolph, a Belgian style red ale aged in Maryhill Winery Port barrels for a year then cellared for another year; C-Note Imperial Pale Ale; Sounder Slayer, a bright golden, highly drinkable crisp lager that abounds with spicy hop bitterness and smooth Pilsner malt flavor; Condor Pale Ale; Black Dawn El Salvador,
a rich, full bodied stout featuring strong roast and dark chocolate
notes that play nicely with the dominating coffee presence, courtesy of
more than three pounds of El Salvadoran coffee per barrel; and Arctic Blast,
a NW winter warmer that pours a dark ruby hue and features chewy
caramel malt and hints of chocolate that are balanced by a generous dose
of English Golding hops. Sidebar is closed for a private party on Saturday, Jan. 21 but this same menu will pour on Sunday, Jan. 22.

Oaks Bottom Public House Presents "Totchos of the World"
PORTLAND, Ore. - Jan. 20, 2012 - The
Oaks Bottom Public House, a Lompoc pub in the Westmoreland neighborhood
of SE Portland, has long been recognized as the place in the city to
order Totchos - nachos made with tater tots instead of tortilla chips.
Starting Monday, January 23, Oaks Bottom will present "Totchos of the World," a six-week culinary journey exploring the crispy, crunchy snack.
Oaks Bottom traditionally serves a Tex Mex version of Totchos in a
volcanic mound of piping-hot tater tots covered with cheddar cheese,
diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños, olives and onions, and topped with
sour cream and a crater full of salsa.
Every
Monday, from Jan. 23 to Feb. 27, Oaks Bottom will feature a new
culinary Totcho treat from a different country on its menu. Executive
chef Mike Parmenter has come up with Totcho recipes inspired by cuisine
from Italy, Cuba, Jamaica, India, Peru and Spain. The flavor of the week
will be available Monday through Sunday for the six-week period.
The
first week's order comes with a passport. The pub will stamp your
passport for every country's flavor you try. Patrons who collect all six
stamps will receive a free large order of regular Totchos and a pint of
Lompoc beer.
Oaks Bottom is located at 1621 SE Bybee Blvd. For more information, visit www.lompocbrewing.com or call 503-232-1728.
