  • Beer and Wine

    Boozies rejoice! Oregon is one of the top states for the beer scene with some awesome microbreweries. Oregon is also the #3 state for most wineries (behind California and Washington).

  • Sports

    Oregon is vastly underrated for its sport scene. The state has some stellar collegiate sports. The state's favorite team is the Portland Trailblazers, but another team to follow is the MLS Portland Timbers soccer team.
