About
A neighborhood institution and a Portland favorite for over 20 years. Find our beers distributed throughout the Pacific Northwest.

Alameda Brewhouse is a brewpub in the heart of the Beaumont Village in Northeast Portland. We have been in business for nine years, offering hand crafted ales and freshly prepared food. All of our beers are produced on location in our 5.5 BBL brewhouse under the watch of headbrewer Carston Haney. He produces a wide variety of beers, from the light, refreshing Siskiyou Golden Ale to the deep, impenetrable Black Bear Double Stout, which won the Gold Medal at the 2003 GABF and the Silver Medal in 2006 and 2008 in the foreign-style stout category. In addition, there is always at least one seasonal beer on tap to fit the mood of the season and one selection served on nitrogen.

On tap at VCBW Festival 2017, pours a deep dark mahogany with a medium tan head. Aroma brings out lots of bourbon, caramel malts and lightly roasted malt. Flavour is heavy, with tons of nice bourbon notes upfront, backed by sweet caramel malt and moderate roasted malt. The bourbon takes centre stage here. Big and heavy, but nicely constructed. Very good.

Bottle (650ml): Pitch-black, medium-sized persistent tanned head; slightly sourish toasty and fruity (dried berries) nose, delicate hints of smoke plus wood and vanilla; moderate sweet-sourish flavour plus a little bitterness, medium bodied, quite smooth ; lingering sourish-hoppy finish with traces of coffee and dried fruits. Very pleasant stuff...

From 65cc bottle. Pours black with no foam. Aroma is coffee, plums, whisky. Body is fairly light, with some stickiness. Taste is only moderately bitter, with a domination of roasted flavor. Finish is short.

Can. pours unclear yellowblonde, medium sized white head. some big bubbles, but retains pretty well nevertheless. Smell is straight up pine, some tropical notes amongst it. Smell is intense, but remains quite balanced. No real malty notes, nor do I get yeast. Taste is very full, bitter, fresh ’green’ hoppyness. Somewhat grassy, strong piny flavors. Mild tropical fruits. Well buid-up malty backbone, some doughy, full aromatic maltyness. No yeasty notes. Average carbonation. A very nice intensity. Aftertaste is mostly the ’green’ hops, piney, and some cereal maltyness. Very nice IIPA.

Can at the Alexandra Arms, Cambridge. The liveliest can I’ve had in a while, even with quasi-expert pouring there’s more head than beer. It settles to a light yellow and heavily carbonated liquid. Gentle lemony aroma: nothing too engaging but nothing off-putting either. Sweet, clean, crisp taste with some bitter hoppiness around the edges, giving a well-balanced bittersweet finish. Not all that much to it but it’s a pleasant enough sessionable lager.

Hazy gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is light, fairly dry and has decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts, sweetish. Light hops, marmalade and fresher orange peel. Plenty of tequila, lime, floral lime and lime peel. Light vegetal tequila. Trace of pine. Had better tequila aged hop beers but this is pretty drinkable.
