The Beards weren't the only major awards handed out of late — per FoodDude, a dozen Oregon breweries took home awards at 2012's World Beer Cup, with five — Columbia River Brewing, Upright Brewing, Laurelwood, the Commons, and Breakside Brewery — hailing from Portland proper. The award winners, determined during a blind taste test during the annual Craft Brewers Conference, were selected from an entry pool of nearly 800 breweries from all over the world. [PF&D]
