We’re just back from an early New Year’s Eve visit to Novare Res, and an earlier visit to the Phyzgig show at the Portland Performing Arts Center. A wonderful start to the celebrations!
Phyzgig is a celebration of physical comedy, old style vaudeville, wonderful acts including comedy, juggling, magic. A wonderful afternoon for kids or adults. Watch for it next year, it’s terrific.
Novare Res is featuring a tasting of Franconian (German) beers… There are over 20 beers, all from bottle, available at $2.00 per 2 ounce tasting. We particularly enjoyed the Drummer dunkels vollbier and the Rehbrau dunkel, but the fourteen beers we tasted were truly a parade of wonderful flavors.
Living in Portland ain’t bad at all…

Amber and I stopped by just after 10:30 for a few quick tastes. My favorites were the Drummer dunkles vollbier and the Vierzehnheiligen nothelfertrunk. The Held Brau dunkel was Amber’s pick of the night. I so wish I could have stayed and gotten farther through the list…
