Bill Porter Porter, Delayed ALAS

4/8/2020

 
As you might know, this week was the scheduled launch of the Bill Porter PORTER, which Deschutes Brewery created exclusively for UCP to raise funds and awareness for UCP's Bill Porter Memorial Fund.

Alas, the downtown Deschutes pub (like so many businesses in Oregon) is closed for now.

We still want to take the time to say THANK YOU to Deschutes, though.

We look forward to gathering at the Deschutes Brewery... hopefully sooner than later!
