Pub grub, microbrew samplers & a spacious patio draw crowds
"Migration Brewing has grown from a neighborhood startup into a regional brewery with a steadily expanding footprint. Its locations offer a broad tap list centered on IPAs, pale ales, and lagers, along with rotating seasonals and the occasional collaboration. The brand now operates multiple taprooms in Portland and a production facility in Gresham, with distribution reaching across the Pacific Northwest and even into international markets. Each space maintains a casual, community-oriented atmosphere grounded in consistent, approachable beer." - Ron Scott
"I discovered that Migration Brewing on NE Glisan Street hosts weekly Liminal Bodies letter‑writing sessions every Wednesday intended as a space for queer and transgender Asian and Pacific Islander and broader Asian and BIPOC communities to build community, share resources, and write letters to political representatives, family and friends, organizations, and media." - Janey Wong
"I really like the burger at Migration Brewing; when I'm out alone I can go to a brewery and eat meat, and brewery burgers can be underrated." - Thom Hilton
"Beer drinkers can head to Migration Brewing’s pop-up at the Wells Fargo Center downtown Tuesdays through Thursdays through the end of August; the temporary taproom is on the newly renovated first floor and is pouring beers from 10 taps alongside canned cocktails and food from Addy’s Sandwich Bar. The brewery also reopened its rooftop beer deck at the Canvas building across from Providence Park last month." - Janey Wong
"Beer on the Move Finding great beer is rarely about the destination and more about the journey. There are no shortage of trails to take you on beer expeditions in Portland , with Migration taking its place among the best. Locally sourced, owned, operated and distributed, the beers coming out of this brewery are broad and balanced. The brewers embrace the importance of innovation, while staying true to styles that span centuries. The beer menu is all Migration, all the time, with seasonal and special batches breaking into the lineup on a regular basis. The IPAs are hoppy and the stouts are, well, stout. Keep track of your alcohol content (always posted along with bitterness values) if you plan on operating machinery after a couple rounds. Some styles creep up into the double-digit range. You'd swear the folks serving the beer are the ones making it, based on their knowledge and expertise in pairing your taste to their brews. The other benefit is a great pub menu with something for everyone. Try the pulled pork nachos or hypocrite burger to give your cold one something to wash down. The pet-friendly patio seating is lively rain or shine and the beers are on sale during televised local sports team events. Plenty of onsite bike parking, too, if you decide to two-wheel it in."
