Out in Hillsboro — which proclaimed its love of beer by naming its new minor-league baseball team the Hillsboro Hops — stadium officials announced that BridgePort Brewing has been named the organization's "official beer." When baseball season begins on June 17, the Portland brewery will have a branded BridgePort beer garden along the $15-million stadium's first-base line, and plans are to create special collaborative BridgePort/Hops brew available primarily at the stadium.
