WORD CLOUDS by Wordle


Wordle is a tool that generated a “word cloud” from all the text on our blog. Clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text.

You can generate your own clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.

Elliott Bay in PDX!


Here's a screenshot from Belmont Station's web site advertising their beer current beer line up. Look closely and you'll notice that Hop von Boorian (outlined in green) is now pouring at one of Portland's premier beer destinations.

We're not poised to launch full-scale distribution way down south yet, but it's still kind of fun to find our Belgian-inspired IPA being appreciated by our Oregonian "brethren and sistren."

Cheers to ya!
