willij3 Posted May 6, 2002 Posted May 6, 2002 Another vote for the E side. Lucky Lab is always good -- or how about Produce Row? Also I think I convinced Jennie to come as well and I'm sure she's with the E side vibe. j Quote
Terminal_Gravity Posted May 6, 2002 Posted May 6, 2002 One of my favorite things about Produce Row is they sell about two kegs of my IPA a week With those profits I can buy one Camalot or 2 bottles of tequilla a month...gee; I'd own a much bigger rack If I'd just stop drinking. Quote

willstrickland Posted May 7, 2002 Author Posted May 7, 2002 PRODUCE ROW it is! Thursday MAY 9 - say 7:00 until The Produce Row Cafe 204 S. E. Oak, Portland, Oregon Tel: (503) 232-8355 Beer: 29 taps; offerings include beers from most area craft breweries, as well as a couple of imports. 200 bottled beers. Food: This is the original home of McMenamins-style pub grub, mostly sandwiches with chips, and some snacks. Popular items include the House Special (a sort of steak sandwich) and the Stormin' Norman. For folks on a budget, a large sandwich will easily feed two. Atmosphere: For over 20 years, the Produce Row has provided funky, simple premises for lovers of a variety of good beer. The place is divided into three rooms: the main front room and bar, a smaller side room, and a back room with a pool table. There's also a fine deck out back with plenty of picnic-table seating, simply wonderful on fine spring and summer days. The Produce Row's interior is humble and unpretentious, and that's just fine, because here, the beer's what matters here. Clientele is just about anyone who likes good beer, from college folks to middle- aged folks from the east-side neighbourhoods. The cabinets on the side of the main entry room have a vintage collection of beer bottles and cans, some of which have been in there for nearly twenty years. That's the Row for you - good beer, a fine place to have it, and historical continuity. May it live on forever. Speaking of historical continuity, one of the original owners of the Produce Row went on to co-found the McMenamins empire. In a sense, the Produce Row is the cornerstone of the entire McMenamins pub group, even if the McMenamins no longer own or run the place. Smoking Policy: Allowed Quote

willstrickland Posted May 9, 2002 Author Posted May 9, 2002 Budweiser? That's not beer...that's horse piss. Why you think they keep all those clydesdales around? Uggghhh. I'll take the PBR and Harley, you take the Bud and Camaro. Quote
Bronco Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 those guys look like Army officers driving that wagon. Quote
sk Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 Umm I hate to tell you guys this but Men who ride hogs Don't drink goat piss, or horse piss. They drink whisky Often single malt scotch, But never shit beer. They take too much pride in their drinking [ 05-09-2002, 01:37 PM: Message edited by: sk ] Quote
willstrickland Posted May 9, 2002 Author Posted May 9, 2002 Preachin to the choir honey...I'm the proud owner of a '63 Harley panhead, brown metallic, filled seams, teardrop tank, suicide-shifter. Actually go this as a college graduation present from my uncle, who's birthday I share. Got pics of me as a 5 year old on the back of that bike.

My six your old has a shovel head with his name on the plates, 3yr old has a black hog, can't remember what it is... I am being passed over. Will purchase own when I can no longer climb. Both uncles and daddy ride. Nothin' like the open road BTW excelent grad present Quote
rbw1966 Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 Around these parts Will, its Rainier Verde or Rainier Rouge that is the industrial beer of choice. Next in line is Hamms, closely followed by PBR. Not that you can tell the difference at that point. Although I don't have a harley, nor do I ride a "hog" (squeal like a pig boy), I've downed many a pint of Hamms with fellows who do. Ride hogs that is. I seem to recall they weren't terribly particular about their beer. Cannabis was a whole 'nother story. My favorite quote from Hunter S. Thompson's "Hells Angels" was when he asked one of the Angels why they let homosexuals hang out with them at biker bars. The Angel is quoted as saying "Look, I don't care who sucks my dick, as long as it gets sucked." Somehow life just seems simpler on that side of the fence. Quote
willstrickland Posted May 9, 2002 Author Posted May 9, 2002 Man, we've had some looong threads on beer. My faves: Porter: Lucky Lab's Stumptown, Sam Smith's Taddy Scotch Ale: Pike Kilt Lifter Stout: Sam Smith's Oatmeal, Rogue Shakespear Barley Wine: TG's private stash...best damn barley wine I've had and I'm a BW fan IPA: not a big fan, but Term Gravity hits the spot Pub syle ale: Boddingtons ESB: Bridgeport, Fuller's Brown: Old Peculiar American pisswater mass produced swill: PBR [ 05-09-2002, 02:20 PM: Message edited by: willstrickland ] Quote
Son_of_Caveman Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 Woa! I didn't mean to drag up the favorite beer thread again, unless y'all wanna rehash. I like to drink till I'm every woman's dream. Quote
rbw1966 Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 Will, you are now my new hero (for a day). Theakston's Old Peculiar is easily one of my most favorite beers. Quote
