Belgian-inspired brewery using organic malts and bottle-conditioned with blackberry honey. The home of Matzobrau, Golden Rose, and G++ ales. Oregon's only brewery without an IPA!

Blizzard Wines

Reviewed By gramps3421 - Chappell Hill, United States

This winery was on a wine tour that we took while in Portland. And all that I can really say is wow! First of all the wine tasting was fabulous. The young owners have a little gem in the making and I wish them well. There are many winery's in this valley and I believe that Blizzard Wines will become one of the top notch winerys.

Ruby Vineyard and Winery

Reviewed By MAXFLITE - Hillsboro, United States

If you are a visitor and plan a Valley wine tour, put this little place on your list and save yourself lots of time and effort. Ruby is one of the closest vineyards to Hillsboro and the wine valley tour sites. If you are looking for pretentious, fancy, stuffy and expensive...pass. If your prefer friendly, casual, lovely views, folks who understand what wine is about- hospitality and fun, this is your spot. The owners will be there, the staff will greet you warmly and the tastings are great. Learn about the vines on property, their other sources, Andrew, the winemaker, the history of the place, Steve's family that came west on The Trail, how he and Flora met and other tales. Look at the back of the bottles and note the small production...this is boutique without the attitude. Handcrafted? That is an understatement. Each varietal is an experience. Steve and Andrew are very careful...it has to be right. Pinot Noir is a pesky grape. It is stubborn, like a child having a tantrum until you pick it up and give it a hug. Ruby hugs its grapes. There is a reason this is one of our favorite wine clubs.

Airplane Home

Reviewed By Yearlongweekend

If you’re in the Portland area, do yourself a favor and visit the Boeing 727 home in the woods. There’s literally no attraction like it. A man named Bruce bought the plane in 1999 for $100,000 and converted it into his private home. And he is all about letting people explore, ask questions, and even stay the night. And for my fellow droners, this is a PRIME spot for that. He encourages flying drones on his property and it’s quite the photogenic location. (Might want to bring some filters because the top of the plane reflects the sun and is super bright). The video we got from this is seriously fantastic! The property is only about a half hour drive from Portland, which isn’t too far of a drive. He has all the info you need to visit on his website. I’d read the entire website as it is very informative. Let me know if you have any questions!
