Taps Open for Zoo Brew
Nights at the Oregon Zoo are
full of excitement — several noc­

ping from sunset to sunrise —
but usually only the animals get
to partake in the fun. On Friday,
June 4, humans get to join the
party at Zoo Brew, where some of
the best beer in the Northwest will
combine with one of the greatest
bands ever to come out of Or­
egon: the Crazy 8s.
Inducted into the Oregon Music
Hall of Fame in 2007, this ska-rock
band will provide the microbrew
festival’s soundtrack, playing live
on the zoo’s main stage as attend­
ees sample beers from more than 20
local microbreweries.
Tickets to Zoo Brew are $25 in
advance ($30 at the door) and in­
clude a commemorative glass and

events. Zoo gates will open at 8a.m.
and close at 6 p.m. Visitors may
remain on grounds until 7 p.m.
“Many of our visitors like getting
here early to beat the crowds,” said
Jim Gilbert, the zoo’s guest services
manager. “Not all the animals are
out at 8 a.m., but it’s interesting to
watch as keepers prepare the exhib­
its for the day. It’s also neat to see
the animals as they first enter their
exhibits — they’re usually quite
active then.”
Among the zoo’s early risers are
eagles, salmon, frogs, turtles and
waterfowl m the Great Northwest Longer hours and more events ¡ead t0 a summer of fun at the
exhibit; penguins and Inca terns in Oregon Zoo
