Last week was the week for beer - a late night at
Bridgeport Brewpub and then some Holiday Ale Fest fun. I would recommend Bridgeport Brewery any day of the week for some good food and quality craft beer. They are open seven days a week until 10pm or later.

The brewpub is two stories with bars on each level and a gift shop on the main level. The walls are all red brick, candles light up the tables and leather couches are available for lounging. I love the atmosphere because it is always lively and everyone is in good spirits. Maybe that is just the beer talking? But still, a perfect place for large or small groups.
The Beers
 |
| Cases of Night Cap |
We started with the winter seasonal brew -
The Ebenezer and then followed with their
Haymaker Pale Ale. I know the Haymaker is more of a summer beer, but I love the rich, crisp flavors. It is always a nice beer to start with. The Ebenezer has more hops than the Haymaker but has a nice sweet malt finish with flavors of barley.
They also had two other seasonal beers this year -
Nightcap Winter Ale and
Old Knucklehead. I really liked the Nightcap because it was similar to the Ebenezer but sweeter with more caramel flavors.

The Grub
 |
| chicken sandwich |
For dinner, we ordered the Brewhouse Macaroni + Cheese, House Smoked Pulled Pork and the Spicy Haymaker Chicken Sandwich. I will sum up the meal with a plus about each dish.
Mac n' Cheese - topped with crushed up house-made kettle chips...yum.
Pulled Pork Sandwich - get it just for the potato salad (the sandwich is traditional but good)
Chicken Sandwich - the bread was awesome and the chipotle mayo has a nice kick to it.
Check out the brewpub on 13th and NW Marshall OR visit the Ale House in SE on Hawthorne.

Now I really wish I had a legitimate reason for visiting Oregon! That Mac and Cheese looks So. Darn. Good.

Yummm! I know! Endless eats in Heaven!! I have provided a ‘semi-colon’ to help U.S. halt this madness. Here's EIGHT blogs YOU may steal/plagiarize to thy heart's content (don't find that very off'n, doya? Just like to give my piece of cranium to the world); be warned, however: Upstairs in Heaven Above, all of my EIGHT blogs of wisdom and avant-garde-efficaciousness will be attributed to moi, aussi. Though, I don't think you'll care one-way-or-the-other in the Great Beyond. God bless.
ReplyDeleteMan oh man that is making me hungry and I just ate!
ReplyDeleteYour blog is lovely, one of my favorite thing to do is eat, and next to that is reading about food. I can't imagine how you could eat like this though, you must make really good money. Ah I was just trying to eat out less recently, now you are shaking my resolve, by adding such a good excuse (blog about it) to it! darn...
ReplyDeleteI live in Scotland, and "Good eats" are hard to come by in the place I'm in, so I just love reading inspiring food stories to get me in the mood for cooking. Pulled Pork sounds amazing btw...
ReplyDeleteOh this looks really good!!!!!!
