50 Best Craft Breweries near Happy Valley

“We had the Charcuterie. It was good. They had friendly staff, good selection of beer at a fair price, and the facility was big and roomy including the outside seating. We will probably be back to try the pizza. The pizzas seem kind of small for the price they are charging.“

“Great beer and sours! Staff is awesome!“

“Shared wings and Brussels sprouts - great beer. Had a wonderful experience.“

“If you are in portland do make it a point t to visit Leikam, it's not downtown, not fancy, next to under consturction lots...BUT it's a must!
What they lack in location they make up in the best bar crew, backyard bar feel..so fun to just chill and chat about anything under the sun or moon.

Oh and the beers awesome too!!

Forget the fancy Portland breweries..this is the one to be at!“

“Great remodel from when it was Modern Times Fermentorium…good beer selection, friendly service…great overall experience!“

“I love ruse. I have been a patron since they opened. Frequent both crust collective and SE. one of the few taprooms that allows dogs inside- which is awesome. Not a fan of their recent pricing changes. $8 for a couvers light? When it’s $4 in a can. I can understand the simplicity of having them all cost the same but Seems more like a cash grab.“

“My wife and I hosted a welcome event in the Baerlic event space the night before our wedding for out of town guests and it was great! Plenty of room but still intimate, a nice aesthetic, and the bartender was friendly and provided excellent service. Their beers are great and the nonalcoholic options were also phenomenal, I would go back! We had Ranch pizza do catering, not only was it super convenient but the pizza was delicious, we had some guests from Detroit who gave it their stamp of approval.“

“F'n amazing people and amazing beer!“

“I love this place! Deja is an amazing bartender, and the selection of crafted beers is top notch. And don’t forget to check out the gluten free food truck! Their corndogs are to die for! Highly recommend that you check out this local queer owned business!“

“Excellent beer and great service! We were so stoked when we learned Chuckanut was opening a tap house in Portland! We were glad to drive hours to get some of the best lagers in the PNW, but 15 minutes is a lot better!“

“Sweet staff. Great space. AWESOME beer.“

“The IPAs wete so good!! We'll definitely be back!!“

“I really enjoyed this pod! There are 8+ different places to eat and the food here is wonderful. My wife and I personally tried , "flew the coop" and "La Arepa" and both had great service and the food was delicious. The attached brewery had an amazing selection of beers. The only detractor was that there was A Lot of very hoppy beers. That is a personal preference though. The Beer I did have was delicious. It's very family friendly and I enjoyed it.“

“The pupusas are delicious the OG is my favorite“

“It is undoubtedly one of the best winery bars in Portland, with the best wines, environment, and atmosphere.They make a lot of experimental wines that are very special and delicious. The bar is decorated in the style of a jazz bar, and the music is played on vinyl records. There are drinking spaces on the first and second floors, both of which are very comfortable.It's a pity that they only get a lot of customers coming in to drink when there are events nearby. I hope everyone will come and support us even when there are no activities.“

“top shelf beers. drink them all. well ok just the ones you will like.“

“Our running group, Eastwind run from here from time to time. When we end our run it’s time to drink and eat. Great beer and cider selection and they let you bring in food from local places around Gresham. Two thumbs up and a hip bump.“

“Some of the best brews on the west coast!! I carry their beers on my taps and tons of people order and enjoy them everyday!! And Rebecca is literally the most knowledgeable brewer I have ever met!!

Parking: Huge free parking lot in a strip mall“

“Great place to hang with friends and delicious beverages!“

“Excellent beer selection, dog-friendly and no kids…an all-around win!“

Also just so sweet and kind and cool and make me feel so special. The reason I come! Thank you for making me and my friends feel so good. I hope your employer knows how incredibly cool and valuable you are! I will come again and again to see you both!“

“Gluten-free beer and a very nice atmosphere where you can hear each other speak, with nice music. Michaela was the most hospitable and patient bartender I’ve ever encountered. Give her a raise and a bonus for helping create a delightful and warm atmosphere that people will want to keep coming back to, especially on cold, rainy Portland nights.“

“I’m not sure if Tyler is part of your location, but whoever the Safeway Tyler was at Safeway today was a complete champ. Me and my buddies totally bought some and he gave us a few laughs while trying out the beer. Thanks breakside and thanks Tyler!!“

“Making our way to Thunder Island for a sunny stroll, we stopped here for a bite - and wow, were we impressed! Staff were super friendly, food was spot on (we had mahi mahi fish tacos and pulled pork sandwich with rosemary garlic fries), beers were delicious, and the building and grounds have such a welcoming, peaceful vibe with incredible views all around (not shown are the river and Bridge of the Gods views). Dogs welcome too! We can't wait to return and definitely recommend a visit to Gorges!“

“Pumpkin Patch Ale: Although I've become less of a beer guy since my college days, I like to try at least one new pumpkin beer each fall. Rogue was founded in 1988 by Jack Joyce, Bob Woodell, Rob Strasser, and Jeff Schultz. Since its inception, they have only had two brewmasters and have won more than 2,000 awards for taste, quality, and packaging. For starters, I love the artwork on the can, which in my opinion is just as important as the taste as I like to display my pumpkin beer bottles and cans this time of year. It's an eye-catching pumpkin orange with a depiction of a pumpkin patch and one particularly ghoulish looking pumpkin. Pumpkin Patch Ale is made using whole pumpkins that Rogue chops up and roasts by hand. Hand roasting allows for a more precise caramelization of the natural sugars. Combining the sugars with the perfect balance of spices results in Pumpkin Patch Ale's signature flavor. The ale comes in at 6.1% ABV and has an IBU of 25. It pours an orangish/amber color and is slightly hazy. I found the flavor to be a mild pumpkin that was not overly spicy or too vegetable-like. Very drinkable, Doughboy approved.

“Cozy Neighborhood venue, perfect for dinner, special events, private parties, friendly staff.“

“In the city of breweries, this is the best brewery.“

“This is another gem in the McMenamins line of fun, historical establishments - and by far my favorite! Been here many times over the years - actually even had my very first lobster roll EVER here (as a special item years ago) and it was amazing. The vibe is so quirky - you definitely feel like you’re walking the halls of your old elementary school - except there are bars and a lively restaurant and even a brewery haha!! The staff has always been super welcoming and friendly. The food at their main Courtyard Restaurant has always been great. On my last visit (July 2023), I had their chicken salad sandwich on croissant and it was SO GOOD!! Even their tater tots were perfectly cooked. And they even have some of the best iced tea I’ve had outside of the south! Their menu changes seasonally so it’s always a treat to try something new. After eating, leave time to explore - the grounds are just gorgeous and you’ll get lost in the nostalgia as you wander around the old school’s hallways. They have several bars - one is huge and has total steampunk vibes. They have a small hotel and a salt water pool - even the bathrooms are beautiful. I’d definitely like to stay here next time - but I imagine it can be a tad spooky at night haha! The school opened back in 1915 so it’s a historic building. The wall art is gorgeous and there are lots of info signs and historical pics scattered around. It’s in a good location in north Portland with plenty of parking and easy to find. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in the area!“

“Great place to hang with friends and delicious beverages!“

“We had great food and beer! Fast service! I can’t remember our servers name but she was the sweetest with my kids! My 10 yr old daughter said the food was ‘bussin’ 😅😂“

“Little Beast Brewing in Portland is a perfect place for craft beer lovers. Their selection showcases a unique range of well-crafted, often wild and sour ales, with complex flavors that stand out. The cozy, welcoming atmosphere makes it a great spot to relax with friends, and their outdoor seating adds a nice touch. Staff are knowledgeable and friendly, enhancing the overall experience. A must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy distinctive and quality brews in Portland.“

“Lynn was incredibly helpful when I needed to create a gift for our head carpenter. She helped me choose beer and a tee shirt and then helped me carry everything to the car. I can't say enough about the service. Thanks Lynn.“

“Delicious drinks and food, especially burgers and fries. They work hard to create different burgers for each week and a different cocktail each day. Amazing and friendly service. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, plus nice local artwork and music.“

“Fun ghost tour then pizza.“

“F'n amazing people and amazing beer!“

“The trivia night event here was very fun and well-attended!“

“Always the best variety of beer, both on tap and in the fridge. This is the spot for the beer enthusiast in this part of Portland. And they are open every day, including Christmas!“

“Great beer and the food carts are awesome!!“

“Delicious and perfect every time!“

“Great comedy shows, open mic and monthly showcase with top comedians“

“Food is fabulous. Melissa is friendly and comfortable to talk with. The menu is small, but we always find something to order and enjoy. Best hidden gem in OC!“

“I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the fantastic experience we had at Old Town Brewing during our recent visit. Both the pizza and the beers were absolutely amazing, as always, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Living a couple of hours north in Washington, I am already looking forward to our next visit. The kindness and friendliness of your entire staff make every trip worthwhile. Thank you once again for making our experience memorable. Thank you to their owner Adam and Pub Manager Kevin for being amazing with our scheduling mishap on the Ghost Tour at your other location!“

“Drinks, food and service is always great! I’ve grown accustomed to driving to Camas for dinner or catching the bus over for a drink from Curt the bartender. My favorites are the weekly sandwich specials since I’m usually there for dinner, Brussel Sprouts and the wings. For drinks, the old fashioned and sometimes the whiskey sour when I don’t drive myself.

Worthy of trying and hopefully falling for the great staff and menu like I have!“

“It had been a few years since I been there, and it was the same...great beers and delicious food. Also, going in the summer is the best, love the outdoor space.“

“Great beer and the food carts are awesome!!“

“What a unique property mixed with, bars, restaurants, a movie theater, spa, wine tasting and golf. There are darts and shuffleboard. I feel that one could entertain themselves for at least a day while visiting this property. While hotel rooms are available, I did not stay overnight. This company's model is to purchase older properties that still have life in them and remodel the existing for their use. They even converted an old school for one of their properties with a bar in a janitor's closet. Check this out for a unique experience.“

“Honestly, I had low expectations coming here as the atmosphere inside was giving me 80s office plaza vibes, but they had a really great beer selection (dark, light, ciders, etc) and their bar food was great! Exactly what we needed for a happy hour. Their patio is great especially on a nice day with a breeze! This place did not disappoint“
