One of may all-time favorite beers is Deschutes Black Butte Porter. I like it so much, I was able to talk everyone into featuring it in an Oregon Tourism ad a few years ago. At the shoot, we got to tour the brewery and taste a lot of samples. They also have a great little brewhouse tavern down the street from the brewery in Bend, Oregon. So, needless to say I was very happy to see them opening a restaurant and brewhouse in Portland, right down the street from the office.
It is a large, well light space with a modern northwest feel. There are lots of booths and big tables for group lunches or drinks after work. They only serve their own beers, but there are plenty of great ones to choose from. They serve up a good selection of pub foods and pizza. The best way to start is to get the pretzel with white cheddar and mustard dipping sauce, awesome. The pizzas and burgers are really good, I can recommend the Blue Bacon burger, but not the Hawaiian Chicken burger. The Ruben and the Cuban sandwiches are also good.
So next time you are in the Pearl District and you want to get a great beer, stop by Deschutes.
