Oregon Senate

Democratic Senate candidate Steve Novick is riding on the coattails of his own successful "a beer with Steve" commercial (the story was picked up by none other than Fox News. Scary.) Now he has teamed up with Eugene's own Ninkasi for his very own beer, "Left Hook Lager."

So not only can you have Ninkasi in a bottle you have have it with a picture of Novick's signature left hook, and the legend, "a battlin' brew."

Novick is having a release party for his political ale on Saturday, March 15th 7:00 to 9:30 Vet's Club, 1626 Willamette $10 cover.

If you want to hear from all the Democratic candidates, even the ones without a beer of their own, go to the Eugene City Club tomorrow at 11:50 at the Downtown Athletic Club and hear all five candidates: Pavel Goberman (Be Healthy! Get Fit! GET ENERGIZED! Vote for Me in 2008!), David Loera ( I actually couldn't find a slogan,I'm sure he has one and I'm going to get an irate email about it. He's seeking to be Oregon's first Hispanic Senator, that much I know), Jeff Merkley (Change. It's coming.), Candy Neville (Keep Oregon Awesome!) and Steve Novick (A fighter needs a strong left hook [and apparently a "clean all malt lager."]).
