The 2012 Palooza will be one of our shortest—just four days in Portland. But rest assured that your heroes make the best of their time there.

The Paloozians arrive in Portland, ready for woodland battle.

Arriving 10 minutes early, B-Luv is parked in the hotel lobby waiting for us with beers in hand.

With the new panorama shot feature on the iPhone, it’s hard to tell who looks freakier—Sean with his demon face or the cyclops behind him.

Our first stop was the Rogue Brewpub for some beers. Rogue has a huge menu of beer options.

They also have some pretty cool graphics on their cans and pint glasses.

Hold still, Milo—this pictrure will be perfect for your LinkedIn profile.

After Rogue, the Paloozians move on to Deschutes, which has great beer and food. The boys dig into a few Mirror Pond Ales.

The main Deschutes in Portand is made with huge wooden beams, out of which are carved a large variety of woodland animals. Hello, beaver!

After dinner, the boys move on to check out Powell’s Books.

Al reporting on our every move outside Powell's.

The Paloozians cap off a solid first day by catching The Psychadelic Furs at the Aladdin Theater—an old vaudeville theater from the 1920’s.

The lads swing into day two with a trip to partake in the sugary goodness of Portland’s famous VooDoo Doughnuts.

VooDoo offers over 50 artisan flavors—all of them imaginatively iced. It’s hard to settle on just 1 or 2 so you naturally end up getting a whole box.

The Paloozians strongly encourage B-Luv to opt for the subtly-named “cock and balls” but he opts for the delightfully cute “fruit loop”.

Here is Craig’s Bacon Maple Bar, a combination that was invented right here at VooDoo and then stolen by every doughnut maker in the world. It is quite literally America’s Greatest Doughnut.

Craig & Allie are looking quite content after wolfing down about 2800 calories worth of pure sugar and gooey perfection.

As if he was once hypnotized to automatically sleep in moving vehicles, Al is off to dreamland as the Paloozians head to the wilderness.

After a short drive, the Palonzians reach one of the nicest waterfalls in the country--the multi-level Multnomah Falls.

The Paloozians take a short break on their hike up to the top of the falls for a group pic.

After hiking up Multnomah, the boys head further east to Hood River, home to one of their favorite breweries—Session. Here’s our tour guide explaining their intricate brewing schedule.

Stacks upon stacks of their flagship brew—Session Lager.

After the tour, the boys settle in at Session Brewpub for some malted beverages and a bite to eat. Here are Milo & Sean having a good laugh.

Sean finally agrees to give Craig what he’s looking for—a classic pic.

The view of the Columbia River, which passes right through Hood River.

Fueled by Session lagers, you can see the wheels already turning as Smalls begins to plan Palooza 2013. What do you think of Dallas, boys?

On the drive back to Portland, cruising past the Old Town neon.

Upon our return to Portland, the boys hit the The Doug Fir Lounge for some music. Lets just say there was whole lotta wood involved.

The Doug Fir is a must see in Portland. It might be the coolest looking bar the Paloozians have ever seen. Like if the Log Palace were a bar.

Your standard, bearded PNW alt-rock, indie + banjo dude kinda band Is cranking out some solid tunes all night.

Two dudes who probably belong behind, not in front of bars, patiently wait for the highly anticipated breakfast at a place called “Gravy”.

Needless to say, you don’t bust out and go to a place called “Gravy” and then order the Egg White and Spinach Frittata.

After breakfast, the boys head to Eugene for the Oregon game. It feels like they’re hanging out at Bill’s house all afternoon when they pre-game at Taylor’s Bar & Grill.

Taylor’s has been a campus watering hole since 1922, so it’s a popular stop for fans looking to enjoy a beer or two beers before the big game.

Sean unleashes the terrifying finger of doom in combination with the pinky ring curl of dismay. A truly apoplectic finger warning.

Milo and Craig are not at all concerned by this turn of events.

The Paloozians walk across the leafy OU campus toward Autzen Stadium.

Bill re-enacts his previous night with Al on the walk over to the game.

The Paloozians follow a crowded stream of Ducks fans to the game.

The walk to Autzen is like a nature hike. Here the Paloozians cross the Willamette River, the water source for many a bottle of Pinot Noir.

The Paloozians finally reach their destination. It’s game time!

So apparently Jesus is a Ducks fan. Who knew?

Milando looks ready to get inside and check out some college football.

If you ever get a chance to see an Oregon game, take it. Great crowd and very convenient. Tonight the Ducks romp over the Huskies en route to a near-miss 12-1 record and Fiesta Bowl win.

Allie settles in for a little southern breakfast at The Screen Door to start our final day

The Portland Paloozians bid you farewell from the final brewery they visit before hitting the airport. Until next year!
