The Brew SiteOh! I almost forgot John’s Marketplace
When we went to Portland last month, I promised to get some better quality pictures of John’s Marketplace if we went; I did, and here are a few.
These are, of course, the tip of the iceberg. There’s a lot of beer there.
And incidentally, here’s a list of what I picked up during that visit:
- 2 bottles of Alaskan Barleywine (one for friends)
- Bam Bière Farmhouse Ale from Jolly Pumpkin
- Pumpkin Ale from Shipyard Brewing
- Night Owl Pumpkin Ale from Elysian Brewing
- Uerige Altbier
- 2007 Anchor Christmas Ale
- Chapeau Banana Lambic
- Festina Pèche from Dogfish Head
We visited John’s when we were in Portland last year. It really is a fantastic place. It was like a religious experience walking in and seeing all that variety. Belmont Station and Beaumont Market are also worth a visit.
BANANA lambic?
Man. First you got me going with the BBC’s Coconut brew, now Bananas?
You’re really pushing my tropical button!!!

That’s a lot of beer. Liquor stores are the closest thing we have to something like this, but wow.
