Have you noticed that Trimet's 'transit on tap' is never centrally located

Yesterdays was at 5115 NE Sandy Blvd and the next one is at Max’s Fanno Creek Brew Pub
12562 SW Main St, Tigard. I forgot where the first one was but that was not convenient either.

They have it a 5-7pm too! Right in the middle of the rush hour! 
Makes me wonder if this is not some kind of cheap PR stunt to be honest.

You would think it would be on a light rail one to be honest...

On the other hand, both locations are on the 12 line (although Max's Fanno Creek Pub is actually no longer on the 12 line, it's on the 93, but only a few blocks from the Tigard TC).

Until TriMet's slashing of the 12 line, the 12 served more incorporated cities in the district than the entire MAX/Streetcar/WES system combined.
