Located close to Amtrak Union Station, and housed in a brick building in Portland’s – Old Town – this venue is an established bar as opposed to an industrial unit with a taproom. This is where Hector learned about about Brett yeast and is also the first time – lactose – was recorded in Bier-Traveller.
PINTS has now been rebranded as – Ascendant Beer Company.
