EUGENE WEEKLY OFFICE
WE LOVE IPAs — brewing them, drinking them, rethinking them.
Widmer Brothers Rotator IPAs are limited-time runs of our favorite,
experimental, boundary-breaking IPAs. Utterly unique and here
today, gone tomorrow. Our latest, Falconer’s IPA, is our tribute
to Master Brewer Glen Falconer. Brewed from a special hop blend,
it’s bright and bitter, with a strong malt backbone.
