It's not all malt and hops - Oregon's brewers face an array of
legal issues from intellectual property law to fundamental
constitutional questions.
The 2006 Law of Beer Symposium features panelists from Oregon's Rogue Ales and
the former director of Oregon Brewer's Guild.
It
takes place on Thursday, November 16 at 7:00 P.M. in Room 110,
Knight Law Center, 1515 Agate Street in Eugene.
The event is sponsored by the Law and Entrepreneurship Student Association.
Panelists include:
Jack Joyce
Cofounder and CEO of Rogue Ales
Jerome Chicvara Rogue Ales vice president of marketing
Jim Parker
former director of Oregon Brewer's Guild and coowner of Oaks Bottom Public House.
Craft brewer Rogue Ales was founded in
Ashland, Oregon in 1988 and now makes a wide variety of traditional and experimental
ales in Newport. The company won four out of 11 gold medals at the 2005
International Beer Competition in England. The competition rates packaged beers
and ciders.
The Oak Bottom Public House is a microbrewery
and restaurant in the Sellwood neighborhood of Portland, Oregon.
Panelist Parker cofounded the brewpub with Jerry Fechter, another
Oregon microbrew renaissance figure.
