Now is the time to confirm.

Eddy34



Also, I have three restaurants that I would like you to vote on or if you have any suggestions, now is the time to make them.

I have scoured the area but beings I don't know it all that well, in my eyes the selection is far and few between. My personal selection will be Flat Tail Brewery, the prices weren't bad, the ribs were amazing, and they seemed to have a fairly varied menu.

My only issue with this choice is the parking, but I did see a separate parking lot across the street, and I can contact Ian there and see if that would be available for us if we choose this place.

The other two, I have no idea, but they were a few suggestions by other members.

That would be Carinios and Novaks.

So let me hear your opinions and I will go with the majority.

If any of you needs to contact me personally, my email address is in my profile and my PM box has filled 3 times since this started, so if it rejects you, email me please!!!

I am really sorry to hear that. There will be a next time.

It may not be covered bridges, but definately a fun drive.

Laura,

We haven't been to any of these but I would likely pick Flat Tail Brewery..........just because I like beer and the name ;^)

I love your reasoning Jim.

I honestly didnt try their beer there, but I did try the beer at the other brewery (same brewer) and was highly impressed.

The chili beer was the BOMB and the white ale beer was !!!

Google Map "Wineopolis, corvallis oregon", that is my Brother's shop there and has a good size parking lot we can use. The address is 151 Monroe but it's at the "back" of the building from Monroe.

Any idea what time we might be there?

So, I guess I'm voting Flat tail too....

I was at your brothers shop.

That area was all new to me so I am not all that familiar with it, but Flat Tail Brewery is a few blocks from there on the riverfront.

The parking lot I was talking about was right across from the brewery itself.

The one you are referring to I believe was also a private parking lot.

I will try to call Ian tomorrow to get more information.

Hi Steve,
What time were you planning on being down this way? I can send you my phone number so you can call and find out where we are before you leave if you like.
