Doug Stepina
Doug moved to Portland, OR from Chicago, IL in 2010, partly due to his growing obsession with the Portland craft brewery scene. His refrigerator is trapped in an endless cycle of depletion and replenishment of NW beers picked up in growlers on trips around the Pacific Northwest or from one of the 50+ local Portland breweries. These beers are purchased to be enjoyed and shared with friends in the recording studio downstairs, the backyard porch, or around the dining room table. Doug and his wife and fellow beer enthusiast, Angela, can often be found with their daughter, Elvira, in tow, enjoying a beer at their favorite brewery, Double Mountain, in Hood River, OR after a hike in the Columbia River Gorge.
