Portland Pubs Walking Beer Tour

The Portland Pubs Walking Tour is a leisurely 3-stop, 1 mile stroll through Portland’s Old Port neighborhood. This journey through history, narrated by the beverages inspired by Maine’s tenacious spirit, takes you past prominent landmarks and to our working waterfront.

Along the way, you’ll visit producers like Liquid Riot, a brewery and distillery that pays homage to the infamous Portland Rum Riots of 1855, and Shipyard Brewing Company, a cornerstone of Maine’s craft beer culture for over a quarter-century.

This bus tour’s final tasting will be held at Portland Beer Hub, the home of Maine Brews Cruise. Portland Beer Hub is a combo beer bar and retail space in the heart of the Old Port. The selection here includes beers from over 30 breweries across the state of Maine. As a bonus, all guests snag a 10% discount on additional draft and to-go purchases!

Founded in 1994, Shipyard is one the largest breweries in the State of Maine. The legendary partnership of Fred Forsley and Alan Pugsley of Shipyard Brewing, is not one to look past. Starting in Kennebunk as Federal Jack’s Brew Pub, Shipyard made their way to Portland in 1994 after they grew out of their space only a year later. Even now, with new breweries opening up all over Portland, they continue to be a huge player in Portland’s craft beer industry today.

This is the house that Novare Res Bier Cafe built, as that renowned Portland beer bar provided the impetus for its owners to open Liquid Riot nearby. Formerly known as In’finiti Fermentation and Distillation, this is one of the country’s few combinations of restaurant, brewery, and distillery in one place. The space is striking, with floor-to-ceiling glass separating the three sections so customers can ogle the producers at work. The beer is varied, and the spirits range from clear to brown, with many in barrels for the long haul.
