"Wolves & People operates out of a restored farmhouse at the edge of Newberg, where the outdoor seating area is charmingly covered with crushed hazelnut shells from the surrounding property, instead of gravel. The focus is on farmhouse-inspired ales, wild ferments, and elegant expressions of local ingredients, with six-ounce pours available for those who want to explore the full range. There’s no kitchen on site, so the move is to grab something nearby in town before settling in for a few pours. Thursday evenings bring an open bluegrass jam, and from summer through fall, it’s one of the most peaceful places in Oregon beer. One is unlikely to find a stout with the earthy complexity of added truffles anywhere else in town." - Ron Scott
