"The Brasserie at Monkless Belgian Ales offers stunning views of Bend’s Old Mill and the Deschutes River from its heated deck, while some visitors enjoy Belgian-style ales at the monastery-like bar inside. The move here is to opt for Monkless specialty beers like the small-batch Dark Habits: This Belgian dark strong is aged for four months in pinot noir barrels, with added cherries that provide a subtle fruity bite. Bring a group of friends or meet new ones at Bend-sourced wood slab Ponderosa pine tables, while enjoying a pot of steamed mussels, a pork schnitzel plate, farro risotto, and more." - Jeffrey Stull, Barb Gonzalez
