PortlandTaps.com Third Thursday – Brian Boru

PortlandTaps.com once again will host their Third Thursday at Brian Boru on August 19, as Summer squares off against Autumn this month with Shipyard Brewing Co. on hand to offer their brews for $3 a pint from 8pm until midnight. That’s right, Shipyard Summer Ale is still available for those who cannot let go of our mild weather, while Shipyard Pumpkinhead has been released for those crazy few who are welcoming that crisp autumn air, or just want further excuse to have another seasonal brew to choose from.

Should be a great night out…A Reggae band will be there as well to entertain with live music.

Can you let go of summer? Something tells me the site of Shipyard Pumpkinhead on store shelves and bar taps means a cold front is soon on the way. Can Shipyard hold off production and shipment until say October next year, please?

BeersSo many beers…So little time. The well-known poster could not be more true.

Thankfully, the folks at PortlandTaps.com have simplified your beer drinking experience here in Portland with their great website. If you’re in search of a cold beer, wondering where you can find a particular one, want to know what you will spend on a night on the town drinking, or simply wish to know the latest drink specials in the area, this site is designed for you.

PortlandTaps.com brings the bar menu to you online. You have a general overview of the bars in the area where you can find beer, and what you’ll pay for your brew at each establishment. A great way to check in on the brews out there, and figure out when, where, and what you might try during your next trip to the bars.

As the creators state, one of the reasons for the site was to provide a guide of information about the beers you’re drinking and the prices you’re paying. That being said, my favorite piece on the site is the Beer Select Menu, where you can pick the beer you want, click Apply, and it generates a list of where you will find that beer, beginning with the cheapest option. You may already know you can grab a pint of Shipyard Pumpkinhead Ale at Grace Restaurant on Chestnut Street for $4.00, but were you aware you can grab one for $3.00 at Mathew’s on Free Street, or $3.50 at Howie’s Pub on Washington Ave.

Hey, so there you go…you can figure out what you want to drink, where you want to drink it, all on the web before you head out. BRILLIANT!!
