Though yes, every day is beer day here in Portland, July has been deemed the official Oregon Craft Beer Month, with more than 300 events — from tastings to tappings to parking-lot BBQs — already filling up the OCBM calendar. Eater will have a rundown of the more food-focused events (beer pairing dinners! rooftop pig roasts!) later in the week, but for those with a case of the Mondays already planning their Friday — OCBM will officially kick things off with a party this Friday (July 1) at Jeld-Wen Field, where 24 breweries will be pouring on-site. The $50 entrance fee includes a glass, 12 tasting tickets (to sample brews like Breakside Brewery's Summer Gruit and Coalition's "Wheat the People"), and access to a BBQ buffet. Tickets available here. [EaterWire]
