MEET'CHA THERE!--Veteran's Night @ Vanguard Brewery

Details

My Father & I 1st checked out the monthly Veteran's Night at Vanguard Brewing in Wilsonville late last year, and we're going back for another visit.

We typically arrive ~5PM and stay toward the end -- during that time people came and went with ~20-30 attendees in total.

The 1st two drinks are complimentary, as is (some really good) pizza as a tribute to the vets.

My Father's the vet in our family. 'Heartfelt thanks to him, and to all of you who've served in one way or another.

'Hope to see you there -- If I know you're coming I'll watch for you,
-Jo

Veterans Night
Vets night is turning into a really fun group of all ages, telling war stories, networking, and looking out for each other. Stop in for beer, food, and some camaraderie with other vets -- all vets welcome! Sponsored by ForwardAssist.org

Background
Vanguard Brewing is an independent, veteran family-owned and operated craft brewery located in Wilsonville, Oregon. Originally founded by a former Army Chinook crew chief and his wife who purchased a homebrew kit in the 80’s during their time stationed in Germany. Now owned by Ted & Silvia Minshall, Vanguard continues on, brewing great beers and providing an inviting environment for the entire neighborhood.

Products and Services
Vanguard Brewing offers a variety of classic-style craft beers, including stouts, porters, and seasonal selections. They also have a tasting room and beer garden on site, where visitors can sample their beers and enjoy food from visiting food trucks.

Reviews and Ratings
Reviewers praise the brewery’s friendly owners, great beer selection, and welcoming atmosphere. Some reviewers noted that the tasting room is small and there is no on-premise food, but the brewery makes up for this with its generous beer by-products donation to “Farmer John,” a local veteran and farmer. Overall, Vanguard Brewing is a great spot for beer enthusiasts and those looking for a unique, locally-owned brewery experience.

Additional Information
The brewery has a strong commitment to its veteran roots, with the owners and staff sharing their passion for brewing and community. Vanguard Brewing is a great example of a small business making a big impact in its local community.
