From Ballroom to Brewfest: OBF 2011

Today was the final day of the 2011 Oregon Brewfest.   For four days, the Portland waterfront filled with beer lovers from across the country – and the beer selection was as awesome as the weather.   This year, the brewers brunch was held at McMenamin’s Crystal Ballroom.  After breakfast and bonding over beers, the street closed between the ballroom and the brewfest so that brewers and brew lovers could march the official keg to the waterfront to be tapped by this year’s grand Marshall, beer guru, Fred Eckhardt.  Below is a brief video of the parade and the opening ceremonies.
