The beer festival, held Friday through Sun- day at the Columbia River Maritime Museum’s Barbey Center, showcased about 40 Northwest beers and ciders. Double Mountain, a Hood River-based brewery, won the “Thar She Blows” con- test; their Cluster**** IPA was the fi rst keg to empty out. “(I) suspect it blew fi rst because of the name!” Taylor said in a message. “Although it was also delicious.” The People’s Choice Award went to the Gin- ger Spiced Kolsch brewed by fi rst-time winner Mill City Brew Werks, of Camas, Washington. Raffl e winner Dan Brownson took home a commemorative 66-ounce Brew Cup beer stein, fashioned by Steel & Timber Construc- tion + Fabrication and featuring an ornamen- tal design and a lid resembling the top of the Astoria Column.

He played all four years in high school and received a number of hon- ors for his play on both the defensive and offensive lines. He wore his number 71 NHS jersey under his gown at his recent graduation from East- ern Washington University. Now Queener, 22, is back on the fi eld for Naselle, this time as the new assistant coach for the middle school N team and as a volunteer assis- tant with the high school squad. “I did wear my Comet jer- sey under my gown at EWU.
