Thursday night of the wedding week festivities Nick and I decided to take everyone out to the Rogue Hopyard out in Independence, OR. We stopped by briefly after meeting with the florist back in June, but nothing was open. It's absolutely beautiful out there, and a lot of our friends are beer enthusiasts, so we thought it would be a perfect outing for everyone when they were in town!
The evening did not disappoint. The weather was absolutely perfect and everyone had a great time trying different Rogue beers, playing Jenga and horseshoes (they also have bags!), and wandering the grounds trying not to get attacked by the scary giant turkey. Seriously, it was frightening. It kept opening its feathers at us and making weird noises. I swear it was following me around, just waiting for its chance to take me down.....
I highly recommend a trip out there. They do salmon bakes once a month during the summer, and the last one is on September 15th! The tickets cost $25 per person, but you get a tour of the farm and fresh salmon baked on a fire right in front of you. They also have a pig roast on October 13th. I can imagine how beautiful it would be out there in the Fall :)
