30 years ago this week, Deschutes Brewery opened its doors in downtown Bend, making an indelible mark on Bend and the world of craft beer in general. This week, Deschutes is celebrating its 30th birthday with a week full of events, starting today (Monday, June 26) and capping the week with a big party in Drake Park.

Here’s the rundown of things happening this week:
