Cheers To Pilsner - Czech Fest

Two small, independent outer eastside Portland brewers are throwing the Cheers to Pilsner Czech Fest on Saturday, Nov. 16th. Threshold Brewing & Blending and Gateway Brewing are teaming up for this event commemorating the 30th anniversary of the Czech Revolution.   

More from a press release:

Raise a glass to toast the events of November 1989 when the Czech and Slovak people rose up in nonviolent protest to end 40 years of  Communist rule.        

Gateway Brewing’s Parkrose Pilsner will be on tap alongside Threshold’s menu of beers.  The breweries will donate all proceeds from sales of Parkrose Pilsner and Threshold’s Side Street LITE Lite pilsner-style ale to the Czech School of Portland.  Authentic Czech pub food will be served by Tabor, famous for the  Original Schnitzelwich.
