"As a brewpub in Portland featuring an all-vegan menu, San Diego-based brewery Modern Times offers something different for folks looking for snacks and hearty meals with their craft beer. Even as out-of-towners, Modern Times has shown that it is willing to be an active participant in the local scene. It has collaborated with multiple smaller breweries in the area. Vegan specialties like the beyond sausage-chorizo burrito and “cheesy” croquettes bring a ton of taste without the cholesterol to accompany a full range of beers from the crushable Ice pilsner to big barrel-aged pastry stouts for dessert." - Ron Scott
