Bill at It’s Pub Night tipped us off to a recent visit he made to Belmont Station in Portland, Oregon.
The new place is bigger, too. I mean, you could still fit three Belmont Stations into John’s Market over in Multnomah Village, but the inventory is comparable. Belmont may be missing some beers that John’s carries, especially at the low end. But there are other Portland International Brewfest sorts of choices at Belmont — Norwegian IPAs, Belgian Stouts — that I don’t see on the John’s Market list.
Another benefit of the new location is the attached pub — the Biercafe — including a few tables on the sidewalk. They only have four taps, but they keep them tasty — or, as the cafe boss Wade put it to me today, “No crap on tap”.
