|
Over the last 60-plus years, a portion of the plastic we consume has made its way in to our oceans. We know little about how much plastic is in our oceans and even less about how this newly-introduced plastic is affecting the ocean ecosystem from microscopic organisms that on the plastic to fish that ingest the plastic mistaking it for food.

“Give me a woman who truly loves beer and I will conquer the world.” – Kaiser Wilhelm II What was the very first McMenamins pub, opened by Mike and Brian McMenamin? The Barley Mill on SE Hawthorne in Portland. “Wine is bottled poetry.” -- Robert Louis Stevenson The Centzon-Totochtin (“Infinite Rabbits”) was an Aztec group that represented the ways humans are affected by intoxication. What’s the name of the Kennedy brewery? The Concordia Brewery, named for the surrounding neighborhood. “Wine is bottled poetry.” -- Robert Louis Stevenson Does each McMenamins pub brew beer? Nope – only our brewpubs and breweries do. They supply our other spots. Which beer is our best-selling ale? Hammerhead, of course. Have a pint or two today! “We borrowed golf from Scotland as we borrowed whiskey. Not because it is Scottish, but because it is good.” -- Horace Hutchinson Queen Elizabeth I, daughter of Henry VIII, was said to be able to drink any man under the table. You show ‘em, Betsy! McMenamins has a full-time historian on staff. He collects stories, photos, anecdotes and more about McMenamins spots, past and present. How many McMenamins are there in the Seattle area? Three – Mill Creek, Six Arms and Queen Anne. Give it up for St. Arnold, the patron saint of brewers! His miracle was a tankard of ale that never ran dry… Put him on the invite list. At the Grand Lodge, the mosaics in the basement hallways were inspired by the work of Spanish artist Antonio Gaudi.
