This in today from Jim Parker, who is in the process of opening his Green Dragon brewpub in southeast (the space is currently only half open as construction on one side finishes up):

Thanks to Ninkasi Brewing’s “Sweet Little F***er” Jamie Floyd and our good buddies at Maletis Beverage, The Green Dragon will pour Portland’s first keg of Ninkasi Ceridwen Harvest Lager starting at 5 p.m. today. The beer, named for a Welsh goddess, is a Dortmunder-style lager.

We’re still operating on our abbreviated beer and food menus as we wrap up construction on the pub side. But a chance to pour this great lager was too good to delay.
