New entry in the Guide in 2016
The following are new entries in the Guide for 2016.
1205 SW Washington Street, Portland, OR 97206 In the same restaurant complex that houses downtown Portland's Lardo sandwich shop and Grass pasta restaurant (and under common ownership with both places),
Beer Belly feels almost more like a diner with a lot of taps than a typical
pub. Beer selection is wide-ranging. Note that this place started business as "Beer Belly," before a cease-and-desist forced the name change. | |
|
4336 SE Woodstock Blvd, Portland, OR 97206 Portland outpost of Hood River's Double Mountain brewery and pub, known for its wide range of beers and good pizza. | |
|
5224 SE 26th Ave., Portland, OR 97202 Not so gigantic, but popular, and there's a patio out front on finer days. Clever beers, more clever artwork on the labels, and a fun place to hang out for beers brewed on-premises. | |
|
2204 NE Alberta St #101, Portland, OR 97211 It's not often that a new (well, sort of) brewpub is so strong right at the start, but that's the case here. Strong contender for best new brewpub in Portland in 2016.
Note: this was formerly the Mash Tun, before it was sold and the name was changed. The beers are decidedly not the same. | |
|
124 SE 11th Ave, Portland, OR 97214 Smallish functional taproom serves a range of quality house brews. Mt Tabor originally started in Portland, relocated across the Columbia to Vancouver, and is now back in Portland and one of the latest in the Buckman Brewery District. | |
|
8103 N. Denver Avenue, Portland, OR 97217 Sister pub-restaurant to southeast Portland's Tabor Tavern with better than average pub food and a decent beer list. | |
|
304 SE 2nd Ave., Portland, OR 97214 COVID-19 Update: limited opening days and hours, and outdoor operation only on deck and streetside "parklet." Reduced menu, but plenty of good beer.
The buzz building up in anticipation of Wayfinder's opening built up to a roar in Portland, right up to its opening day on October 1, 2016. The buzz hasn't subsided. The brewery is focused on lagers, with equipment available to do decoction mashing. The menu is all about good pub food. The expansive outdoor deck is a must on a fine day. Put this one on your short list of must-visit Portland brewpubs.
2017 Update: in June 2017, Wayfinder's house brewed beers made their debut. Brewer Kevin Davey is turning out the kinds of beers that will quickly develop an avid following. | |
