On our final day in Portland and after a great hike, we decided we were ready for another brewery visit. When I checked nearby, Gigantic Brewing's Robot Room was nearby and we went. Gigantic Brewing has been a bucket list visit for me; we get their bottled beers locally and they're always a great. The owner Ben has been super friendly online the last few years so it was also great to come in and support the business.
It was a rainy day, so we sat inside but they also had a great outdoor seating area shared with the adjoined restaurant. Restrooms are also shared, an easy walk outside the taproom beyond the bar.
We were immediately greeted by a boisterous bartender, Cody, who entertained us all afternoon. We each ordered a flight, which are served in muffin trays, and quickly made the bar run out of taster glasses. We each told him what we liked and he made recommendations, many great ones. He also gave us recommended drinking orders, which I promptly forgot and was ribbed for. We ordered a few individual beers including Massive Barleywine, which is a favorite style for me. Beer quality is excellent, and I probably enjoyed it more due to the freshness. Prices were reasonable for the quality and entertainment.
They also had merchandise for sale, plus bottled beer cold and ready to go. If you're a beer fan and are not familiar with Gigantic Brewing, I highly recommend it. They have other locations in the Portland area as well. Cheers!
