Heart of the Valley Homebrewers

05/11/2023

Our beloved beer prof and friend Kendall Staggs peacefully passed away this morning. He truly loved everyone in HOTV and appreciated all the kind messages and support while he lived with cancer.

So today if you're having a beer (especially a Bruery beer) raise your glass and give him a toast.

We'll miss you, Kendall.

Pay your respects to The Godfather! https://www.gazettetimes.com/business/the-godfather-of-the-mid-valley-brewing-scene/article_2c32f372-4287-51c9-9e90-07e683900e9d.html?fbclid=IwAR2LSHBRQPNCc4WRMyk-m3K0fN9UwV8ERPp1m4johqxH9MXIcqOKcxptNpQ =blox&utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social

Perhaps no person has nourished the mid-Willamette Valley brewing scene more than Joel Rea, the owner of Corvallis Brewing Supply, which recently moved into a new storefront in downtown Corvallis.

Joes Garage was a favorite album of mine... I had to share this... Very cool.

San Diego-based Duckfoot Brewery Co teamed up with the Zappa Trust to create a new tribute beer, hilariously named Why Does It Hurt When IPA?

Registration is now open for the 38th Annual Oregon Homebrew Festival!

The competition showcases the dedication, hard work, and creative spirit that goes into every batch of homebrew; and this year's competition is limited to 32 total entries, with two entries per person. Did we mention there's no entry fee this year?!

Register now at hotv.org/ohf while there's still room, and for more information and complete rules.

After much thought and discussion, we at the Heart of the Valley Homebrewers have decided to postpone the Cancelled: 13th Annual Septembeerfest! until next year, in an effort to ensure the safety and well-being of our attendees and participants. If all goes well, we'll be able to get together in 2021 and raise a toast to the Willamette Valley’s best craft beer, cider, and mead.

But stay tuned to our page as we announce upcoming Corvallis Beer Week events that'll allow us to safely gather together, enjoy a beer or two, and enjoy the wonderful community around us.

Cheers! 🍻
