A leftist Portland, Ore. business owner who advocated for the city's destruction during the Antifa and Black Lives Matter riots of 2020 and 2021 announced he is closing his taproom after suffering significant financial losses since that time.
Nat West, the owner of Reverend Nat's Hard Cider on Southeast 35th and Division Street, who identifies as he/him on social media, is permanently shuttering the doors to his taproom. The taproom's beverages are a former staple in the progressive city now struggling with surging crime, homicides and business closures following the 2020–21 riots.
The shuttering of West's taproom is ironic given his strong advocacy and promotion of property destruction and vandalism in Portland.
"Please smash all my windows if it will be a step toward change," West said in an Twitter (now X) post in April 2021, nearly a year after the deadly riots started in Portland. For more than 120 days straight in Portland, far-left extremists carried out acts of insurrection against the local and federal governments through firebombings, explosive attacks, looting, arson, gun violence and rampant property destruction.
The owner of Reverend Nat's Hard Cider repeatedly expressed support for far-left political violence in Portland, Ore.
In response to an individual criticizing rioters for smashing up the Oregon Historical Society in October 2020 at an Antifa direct action, West suggested the museum deserved it.

Picked up Andy’s “Unmasked” yesterday. VERRRRRRRY Interesting. Thanks Andy.
Reverend Gnat. Never heard of the boy.
Bawahaha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!
So sorry, NOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’d suggest he change his pronouns to the more apt “dumb/ass”.
Some folks just learning they can’t virtue signal their way out of this societal wreckage.
> who identifies as he/him on social media <
Aw, Mr. Ngo. It’s a minor point, but why do we need to know that? Don’t play that game.
Please smash all my windows?
MUST BE A RENTER-—NOT THE BUILDING OWNER.
I remember perusing his website a few years ago on how to make hard cider. Didnt let on his politics at that time IIRC.
Huh, whoda thunk it?
LOL!
West suggested the museum deserved it

I can suggest that West deserved it.
TFB. Sign up for government assistance and sit around till you die.
It was. It changed the windows from whole to broken. If this isn't a perfect metaphor for Antifa "wisdom" I've yet to hear better.
West continues to advertise his beverage consulting side business...
Yeah, that'll work. Who best to ask about running a beverage business than one who went broke doing it? I hear the Bud Light marketing team is hiring...
Must have served a lot of Bud Light.
