Portland, Oregon’s Migration Brewing is celebrating their 13th anniversary during Oregon Craft Beer Month’s Zwickelmania this Friday-Saturday, February 17th & 18th across all three of their pub locations.  The party starts at 4pm on Friday 2.17 at the North Williams pub with rare specialty beer firkins being tapped by honorary guest Self Enhancement Inc. (SEI).  The official anniversary beer Liven Up! IPA will also be available in limited 16oz/4-packs.  Visitors will have plenty of fun food specials and music throughout the evening.  

More from a press release:

The party continues Saturday 2.18 with the Oregon Brewers Guild’s Zwicklemania sponsored tours at the Glisan and Gresham locations from 11am to 4pm.  This is a great chance for fans to get behind the scenes and hang with the beer team while sampling rare and unique beers. Both Glisan and Gresham pubs will also be tapping specialty beers and showcasing anniversary food offerings. See the attached schedule for full details!  

This is Migration’s premier annual event.  “This is our busiest weekend of the year, and we have always celebrated our anniversary with the customers and friends that have gotten us to this point,” says Co-Founder/Pubs Director Colin Rath. “This year we’ve gone all out with a multi-day event schedule featuring lots of new beers, limited release classics and really just a big party with the community that supports our company every day,” states Rath.  

This year, Migration’s anniversary beer is Liven Up! IPA.  A modern West Coast IPA that is built on a pilsner and wheat grain bill that lets the plentiful Mosaic, El Dorado and Simcoe hops take center stage.  Gold in body, and clocking in at 6.7% abv & 50 ibu, bold tropical aromatics give way to a smashing flavor profile of pineapple, guava and mango with a subtle pine finish.  Liven Up! IPA will be available at all Migration locations and select local retailers.     

Migration Brewing started in 2010 when four friends came together over a passion for craft beer and a dream of opening a brewpub. With a lot of bootstrapping, and a little luck, they have since opened four pub locations within Portland. As an award-winning brewery, the Migration team takes great pride in producing world-class beers that embrace innovation while respecting classic styles. Visit migrationbrewing.com
