"With 50 drafts and more than 300 bottles, the beer selection at Apex is supreme. Unlike some trendier tap houses, the vibes at Apex are decidedly unfussy, with pinball machines inside and a massive patio of picnic benches outside. Spring and summer days will see the patio teeming with suds-loving Portlanders, but all beers are available to-go for patrons who are unable to snag a seat. The bartenders may be serious beer nerds, but they’re typically happy to offer suggestions to those intimidated by the colossal tap list. Food is welcome from Los Gorditos next door or any of the nearby restaurants." - Nathan Williams
