Nestled in Portland’s East Bayside, Oxbow Brewery charms with its inviting vibe, unique farmhouse ales, and a fantastic outdoor space perfect for sharing sips and bites.
"Serves farmhouse beers like the mixed-fermentation Cletus." - Stasia Brewczynski
"If you’re doing the Portland brewery thing, make sure to prioritize Oxbow. Their main space is about 10 miles outside the city, but this Portland location is where they have most of their events (and also where they make their sour beers). It’s so big in here that they have their own art gallery space, and all of the bar food comes from the Duckfat people (another spot we love). And, unlike a lot of other breweries, this massive taproom in East Bayside stays open until 1am on weekends." - Hannah Albertine
"Oxbow Brewing’s sprawling Portland outpost feels somewhat industrial, and it's no wonder; half the facility is used for production. The cool, warehouse vibe and vast selection brings faithful regulars to worship at the temple of Maine’s most prolific brewery. Oxbow is a mandatory stop for beer tourists in Portland—you'll be able to sample the saisons for which the brewery is known, as well as harder-to-find styles at which Oxbow excels, like bières de garde and grissettes. Be sure to hit up the Duckfat Friteshack, just outside, on your way in or out." - Noah Kaufman
