Beaver-related bar/brewery near Corvallis, Oregon?

April 26, 2015 12:04 PM

I once had a pint glass that a roommate left behind when moving out. It was a regular 16-oz pint glass, with a drawing of a beaver and the tagline "Where Beavers Go to Eat and Drink." I don't have the glass anymore, but I would like to find it for sale somewhere. Except I can't remember enough about it to search for it, other than that tagline! Do you recognize the tagline? Where is it from?

Here is what I remember:
- It was a regular 16-oz pint glass, made of glass
- It had a drawing of a beaver on it (black ink, no color)
- It had the tagline "Where Beavers Go to Eat and Drink."
- It had the name of some local brewery or pub or restaurant/bar on it.
- It was probably from somewhere in the pacific NW, since that's where the former roommate was from.

I'm guessing it was produced by a bar/brewery in Corvallis, home of the Oregon State Beavers. But I'm not even sure about that. I think if I can figure out what bar or brewery uses that tagline, I can probably find this glass.

Can you help? What establishment in Oregon uses the tagline "Where Beavers Go to Eat and Drink"?

Best answer: Disclaimer; I don't know Corvallis all that well, but I do know a pub there that has a B&W beaver logo, Flat Tail Brewing. Could this be it?

Best answer: The Oregon State University mascot is the Beaver. Check out their online store.

Response by poster: Ooh, Zedcaster, maybe! That doesn't look quite like what I remember, but it's promising. I'll see if I can find pint glasses from them.

Best answer: How long ago was this? A lot of breweries-eateries come and go in Corvallis & area.

Otherwise a connaisseur friend's father (hi B!) in the area also seconds Flat Tail Brewing as the best possibility.

Response by poster: Not sure how long ago my friend obtained the glass.... it was at least 3 years ago, possibly longer.

Best answer: There's been a lot of turnover in the local pubs and breweries in the past few years. It's possible that the place is gone. I'll name a few and you can see if anything jogs your memory.
Clodfelter's (right near campus)
Fox and Firkin (gone)
Bomb's Away (also near campus but less OSU-oriented)
Old World Deli
Block 15
The Peacock

Response by poster: Thanks all for the answers! I ended up scrolling through google listings and having a flash of memory at "Harrison Bar and Grill." I think that's where the glass was from. I'm contacting them to see if they can help me with this long-shot attempt.
