Join us for our next pop-up, Smoke Show, the third installment of our 2024 Pop-Ups and Collabs at the winery on Saturday, March 23 from 12:30-3:30 pm or sold out!

HarBQ has been making waves in the Oregon food scene for the past couple of years popping up at breweries across Portland. We are stoked to share our wine next to their smoked meats later this month.

These pitmasters focus on Oregon Oak smoked PNW “style” BBQ done right with seasonal sides and an emphasis on doin’ it the right way…however long that damn brisket takes.

We’ll have the wine flowing, great local beers, and live tunes bumping in our production space at The Wine Yard. Plus we’re always looking out for those interested in NA bevs, so we will have our great selection of those on deck.

We are expecting a big turnout, so show up on time to make sure you get in on the deliciousness!
