Ninkasi presents Oatis
Just in time for the rainy season, Ninkasi Brewing Company of Eugene, Oregon has released the fullbodied oatmeal stout "Oatis." 
The newest member of the Ninkasi family is named after Otis, the black lab of the company's working brewer and part owner Jamie Floyd.
Floyd promises "Rich robust flavor, silky oatmeal body, and cheek-warming strength fights off the cold winter months."
The heartwarming 7% ABV brew will be made available around Portland at fine establishments such as Bailey's Tap Room, Horsebrass, Moon and Six Pence, Oaks Bottom, 9 Muses, Kays, and the Skybox sports bar will be featuring the beer on cask.
If you don't get a chance to experience it at one of these places, you can sample it alongside a vast array of winter warmers at the Holiday Ale Fest in Pioneer Square November 29-December 1, 2007.
On a different note, Jamie was invited to participate as a "star" in the local version of Dancing With The Stars. This was a charity event hosted by Upstart Crow Studios. Upstart Crow Studios is a non-profit youth performing arts organization. Their collaborative arts education center showcases programs in performing, visual and applied arts.

Hi. I just moved to Portland from Vancouver, BC, where beer and liquor prices are crazy, so crazy that an acquaintance of mine started making his own at some kind of 'DIY brewery' - that's all I can think to call it, anyway.
He'd go there and they had everything he'd need to make some really nice beer, and it wound up costing him about 60 cents per bottle in a place where you typically can't even buy a 6 of the lousiest Canadian beer for less than 10 dollars. And he used and re-used his own bottles, which seemed pretty eco-friendly to me.
So I'm interested in knowing if there are similar outfits in Portland - places where you make the stuff on-site (I have absolutely no space in my apartment to alot to a home brewery).
I've done some looking, found nothing, and am hoping, since your blog is about beer in Portland, that you might know if such places exist... and what they're rightly called, as DIY brewery doesn't seem to be the right term...? Any response will be appreciated. Cheers, Joshua.
