Tin Bucket on Postcard

"Growler-to-Go There was a time in the not-too-distant past when folks would wander down to their neighborhood brewery and come home with a pail or two of fresh beer. Today's growler industry was born from these humble beginnings. The Tin Bucket takes the practice and geeks it up with modern technology to insure every container they fill leaves fresh. This NoPo pit stop is on the bike route and a popular pause for cycling commuters needing a boost. The Bucket is filled with a great selection of bottle beers and ciders and sports 40 virtual tap handles for pints and growlers. The filling stations are a Jetsons-like operation imported to PDX from down south. The high-tech nature of recycling your container for beer refills pairs perfectly with Portland 's sustainability culture. The selection is ever-evolving and the staff is up-to-speed on taste profiles and beer trivia. There are a few tables in this small space to sample and ponder what to take home. Just don't leave empty growler-ed."

"Tin Bucket is a decidedly straight-forward spot—a casually industrial space where visitors can comfortably enjoy selections from the 40 taps in the space. Most of the beers, ciders, and meads here are from the Pacific Northwest, there are always a few select gluten-free options. Growler service is available for those looking to take some beers home." - Alex Frane

I always drop by here for an inexpensive bottle. Corkage fee is $1.00 if you want to drink it there. Happy hour corkage is free. They have a good selection of tap beers starting at $4 any time of the day. Happy hour, you will save a little. You can fill a growler here as well. There’s 3 communal picnic tables outside on the sidewalk for drinking. No smoking!

Great selection of about 40 taps, mostly beer but also cider and meads to chose from. Lots of rotation on the list so plenty of reasons to go back. The space is smallish but still a fair amount of seating. The staff are easy going and have big beer brains to help with selection. The monitors on the wall are a bit hard to read but just go to their webpage and research what beer your want before you go up and order.

I've been coming to this local hangout for years. The Tin Bucket is an amazing place to discover new beers on tap or pick up a new exciting brew to-go. If you enjoy beer, this is the place to go.

Good spot for beer selection and lots of TVs for its size. Great website that's always up to date with what they have on tap. Staff aren't typically overly friendly but get the job done.

Tin Bucket on Williams Avenue is a great little space. Their tap list is pretty diverse, and they are also a bottle shop. So, whether you're looking for something specific or hoping to try something new you'll find it at Tin Bucket. Tin Bucket doesn't serve food, but there is a lot of great food on Williams. Williams is a pretty new scene in Portland, but it is really a fun area to explore.

Great selection of beer but with a tinge of that "portlandish" arrogance young people at hip places tend to have for service. 4 stars cause they have good glassware- most places kill good beer by using the shaker pint.

I bought an ice cream next door and went outside to eat it. Without realizing I accidentally sat at Tin Buckets outdoor seating. There were plenty of empty tables, I was just sitting quietly for a few moments, but a staff member felt it necessary to come outside and rudely tell me that I couldn't sit there and that I had to leave. I was humiliated! Then he added as he went back inside, "unless you want to buy a beer..." Well I certainly didn't after that! I left immediately! I'm sure the beer is great, but that's not a great way to attract new business.
