From the Weekend: Powell Street Craft Brewery

Beerfest at Powell Street Craft Brewery's tasting room in Grandview-Woodland on January 18 and 25, 2015.

With all the new craft breweries and burgeoning beer culture exploding, Powell Street has been a reliable staple on the Eastside since 2012.

The former nano-brewery's relatively new location (originally located four blocks east) has a vintage charm to it with the plain wood finishes and basement feel.

As for the beer, I did my best to try most of the bunch. The Ode to Citra Pale Ale was quite crisp and delightful in its fine taste.

You'll most likely be familiar with the award-winning Old Jalopy Pale Ale as a tasty, no-nonsense drinking pale ale with abundant citrus and floral notes.

Catherine got a sampler flight of beers: (left to right) Seasonal Stout, White IPA, Dive Bomb Porter, and Old Jalopy Pale Ale.

The Hodemonium IPA has a nice, subtle bite to it and isn't too hoppy with its robust flavour.

The White IPA (aka WIPA) was very good, easy drinking, and crisp. It had a very subtle hop to it and I really enjoyed its golden quality.

The Azacca Ale was light, refreshing, very easy drinking, and smooth, if a little slight.

I was curious to try the Double IPA and was pleasantly surprised by the refreshing hoppiness to it.

I really dig Powell Street's no-nonsense line up of basic yet well-made beers from a very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Also, I enjoy the old school Duff Beer/Moe's Tavern style mugs.
