From Pelican:
Best Destination Restaurant
The Pelican Pub & Brewery is proud to announce that they were named “Best Destination Restaurant” by readers of 1859 ![clip_image002[1]](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4K9ystqGMYlrBWiwa20UUhJZu7hlvglkaAoCsptC_ozZrLOSnbemgCxZr2k9b_MKMqa6q5fjKcSjl4fpdqSShbc9KTNgmE0d18u7QY5_im2NezUgTPlRBacdYEf0dpbF5AWTCfRImPBA1/s1600-h/clip_image002%25255B1%25255D%25255B3%25255D.jpg "clip_image002[1]")
Tillamook Ground Breaking
A cold, windy and rainy day set the background for turning over a shovel of dirt at the new Pelican Production Brewery at First and Stillwell in Tillamook. Darron Welch, Ken Henson, Jeff Schons and Mary Jones, owners of the Pelican, were on hand to pour samples of Pelican beer and give tours of the work under way. The Pelican Production Brewery will be located in what was formerly known as the Star Distributor Building and will house a 30 barrel system with the capacity of brewing 8,500 barrels per year for phase one (more than doubling the Pelican’s current capacity of 4,000 bbls per year), with potential capacity of up to 35,000 bbl per year as business grows. The brewery expects to fill all its production of 22 oz bottles and kegs at the new facility with the added capacity of 6-packs starting late this summer. A 40 seat tasting room with a view onto the production floor and outdoor patio will serve fresh, tasty brews and simple Pelican fare such as the Pelican’s World Class fish & chips and clam chowder. The production facility would not have been possible without the help of the City of Tillamook, Tillamook County Commissioners and Tillamook Urban Renewal Agency (TURA). The brewery team expects to be brewing beer into the new tanks as early as the end of June and the tasting room is expected to be open and serving beer in August.

Not Maibock!
“Notice: Orphan beer in need of a good home. This beer is malty and delicious with a subtle fruitiness and a smooth, clean finish. Abandoned at conception, this beer has thrived despite lacking a devoted parent to usher it through its formative days of growth. This is a rare opportunity to adopt a mature beer in the prime of its life and ready for consumption.”
Not Maibock was a collaborative effort of the brewery team which was dreamt up by someone, spear-headed by no-one and yet resulted in a beer that was loved by everyone. Brewed in the Maibock-style, this strong golden lager was finished with a whirlpool addition of Sterling hops that provides a delicate hop fruitiness to complement the sweetness from a large two-row malt bill. 7% abv, golden in color, this lager is perfect on a spring day at the beach. Get it before its gone – its #4 of our Lone Pelican Series and available only on draft. Prost!
