a draft with the senator - View this location on map  'bend is a beer town. there are three microbrewery-brewpubs, with a fourth set to open next month. the deschutes brewery ( 541-382-9242) is perhaps the most popular, but many locals prefer the bend brewing company (1019 nw brooks street, 541-383-1599), above right. this small brewpub and restaurant at the top of a grassy slope that descends to the deschutes also is the unofficial office for state senator ben westlund (he's the man hunkered in the corner booth with a cellphone). the senator prefers the fish tacos ($8.95). the menu matches bend brewing microbrews ($3.25) with most entrees.''
