Have you ever wondered what a ketchup flavored beer would taste like? Luckily, Portlanders will have that opportunity this Friday.
In honor of National Ketchup Day, Red Duck Ketchup will be hosting a celebration on Friday, June 5th with Coalition Brewing. At this event guests will be able to try ketchup inspired beers brewed by Coalition.
The first 50 attendees will receive one of two beers, including a Spicy Ketchup Beer or a Curry Ketchup Red Ale. The first 100 attendees will receive frankfurters from Olympia Provisions. In addition, Red Wagon creamery will also be scooping samples of their Red Duck Mole ice cream that is made with a spice blend from Red Duck’s Spicy Ketchup.
This is free event that is open to the public. It will be held at Coalition Brewing on Friday, June 5th.

It’s been said that time flies when you’re drinking rum. And that’s especially so on this out of the way covered patio on Sandy Blvd. While there’s a strong focus on rum here, you can enjoy plenty of other spirits, beer, and wine. The diverse cocktail list and well curated selection of bites keep this on my favorites list.

The Landmark Saloon is a renovated house on Division Street. It’s quite small, even by house standards. However, what they lack in square footage for indoor seating is more than redeemed with all of the picnic tables, fire pits, second bars, cornhole boards, and trees in their adjacent yard where you can laze away a beautiful summer day.

The large open air space behind this North Williams bar is a classic Portland place to spend a hot summer day. And the space is huge. Hanging with a large group? No problem. The landscaping, with an oddly satisfying, crunchy pea gravel, is inviting, the staff is great, and the beer here is very cold. Bonus: If it gets too hot out, slip inside for a round of shuffleboard.

While the interior has a way of transporting guests back to the days of pub culture, those who make the effort to head out to the garden will be rewarded. It’s secluded and lush and by the first sip of your pint, you’ll forget all about the hustle and bustle of rush hour happening just a few feet away.

You’d be forgiven for not discovering the back patio of Teote right off of lower Hawthorne. Orders are taken at the counter on the first floor, but follow the stairs up and then meander your way to the back of the house where the second floor spills out into lovely back patio complete with a second bar and a fire pit. I’m still trying to figure out how to you get to the back yard by going upstairs. Plus, the food and drinks are delicious and affordable.

With so much buzz about the new Latino market on Foster Avenue opening later this month, it’s only fitting that they’re incorporating a bottle shop into the list of retailers. Pop into Barrio Bottle Shop and grab a beer for dining in at one of the food carts. The patio is covered and heated to help prolong Portland’s short summer season.
