Westward Whiskey
A celebration of Oregon’s legendary brewing culture, this whiskey grew out of our longstanding cask-trading tradition among a select group of beer producers in the Northwest. For as long as we’ve been making whiskey, we’ve traded our freshly-emptied barrels with some of our brewing friends in and around the Northwest, who have in turn “seasoned” them with Stout before returning them again. Our Stout Cask Finish begins with our Westward American Single Malt, and is then aged for one year in Stout casks. American Single Malt Pinot Noir Cask • Bottled at 45%ABV / 90 Proof
A tribute to Oregon’s legendary Willamette Valley wine country, this elegant whiskey is influenced by the region’s premier grape varietal: Pinot Noir. This cask-finished whiskey reflects the vibrance of the Valley’s signature grape while allowing the bold, robust notes of our whiskey to shine through. Our Pinot Noir Cask begins with our original Westward American Single Malt, which is then finished for up to two years in French Oak wine casks from a handful of award-winning producers in the region. American Single Malt • Bottled at 45%ABV / 90 Proof Single Malt, reimagined. Born of the unique culture, climate and abundant resources of the Northwest, this elevated American original demonstrates our craftsmanship and creativity. Our distinct, rich, and brazen American Single Malt — the pinnacle of whiskey. Created from locally malted barley, brewed with ale yeast for exceptional flavor, and matured to perfection in new, lightly charred American Oak barrels right here in Oregon, where our hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters are the ideal environment to raise a world class whiskey.
The fi rst 500 gnomies to enter the festival on Friday and Saturday will receive a free sample from Westward Whiskey!
Noble Oak • Double Oak Bourbon •
Noble Oak Double Oak Bourbon is a unique award-winning bourbon finished with sherry oak sourced by the Master of Wood at Edrington, producers of the world’s finest single malts. With notes of honey and ripe cherries.
Ancient buffalo carved paths through the wilderness that led American pioneers and explorers to new frontiers. One such trail led to the banks of the Kentucky River where Buffalo Trace Distillery has been making bourbon whiskey the same way for more than 200 years. In tribute to the mighty buffalo and the rugged, independent spirit of the pioneers who followed them, we created our signature Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
Crater Lake Spirits • Rye Whiskey •
A true American rye whiskey, Crater Lake Rye revives the tradition of pre-prohibition small town family brands. Distilled from 100% rye grain then aged in American Oak to a rich honey color, this classic spirit starts smooth with notes of creamy toffee and vanilla, followed by peppery spices and a soft oak character.

Century Center Allman Betts Band When The Allman Betts Band released "Down to the River" in June of 2019, the debut album represented not only the fi rst time the group had recorded together, but, in fact, the fi rst time the seven-piece ensemble had ever played together. If "Down to the River" was the sound of the band’s combustible sparks igniting, then "Bless Your Heart" is their bonfi re, built for the summer of 2020 and beyond; a double-album follow-up fueled by road-forged camaraderie and telepathic musical intensity, vibrantly refl ecting the individual and collective experiences of these seven, all drawing inspiration from the band’s symbolic hometown” 7-11pm. $25.
