Covid killed my old favorite bar, and Growlers filled the gap seamlessly! Im not a beer drinker, but they always have several cider and seltzer options to choose from.Very pet friendly, and the people are great too. Theres a great community of regulars that are so welcoming and fun, and the bartenders are knowledgeable and attentive.

Come here for post climbing beers every time we hit the Circuit, and have had great experiences each time. But, KEVIN knows his hops, and it’s so refreshing to hear about the origins of the hops that are used in old and new favorite beers.Thanks again Kevin!

Love the variety of beverages on tap here. There’s a range of craft beers (not just IPAs!!) and the majority are from right here in the PNW. They also rotate through kombucha kegs and even have some non-alcoholic CBD seltzer. Canned favorites are also available to drink or take to-go. Free popcorn, friendly service, outdoor seating, and plenty of dogs around make this a great neighbor hangout.

I can’t imagine life without NW growlers. I’m not a beer drinker, but they always have good seltzer and canned wine options. My husband is always pleased with the rotating selection of otherwise hard to find beersEveryone’s friendly and dogs are more than welcome. There is usually plenty of well spaced, Covid-friendly, outdoor seating.

There are not too many good beer bars in this neighborhood but this is the gem. Incredible selection on tap and an expanded cooler. I will say I wish you could break up packs.

Great spot to grab a beer! They have a wide and ever changing selection of tasty beer and cider. Prices are always fair, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend stopping in if youve never visited.

Great neighborhood beer joint. On any given night, at least half of the place is filled with regulars that live within walking distance. Beer is very well priced. Service is fantastic!

No food means.. no kids!! Yippee. This is my cheers. It is one of Portlands only doggy bars since Willamette Park is near. Great staff. Great beer selection. Sports, free popcorn and great prices Tuesday.

Nice beer selection, friendly staff and fast service even though its busy, no food but you can grab stuff and bring in from the Thai, Indian or Hawaii place nextdoor.

Review №18

Great place to grab a beer and occasionally watch a game. Byof (bring your own food) or enjoy a plentiful amount of complimentary popcorn. Close to a variety of restaurants, Hawaiian, Thai, Indian, Mexican. All very good. Dogs welcome if they’re friendly, water bowls and floor popcorn for days. Large beer and cider selection, something for everyone. Wish the beer was a little colder, still 5 stars regardless.

NW Growlers has an impressively solid tap list with a group of super friendly locals to enhance your experience.Are you a dog lover? Well, they have those in droves as well. I dont think Ive ever went in and not encountered one who wasnt stoked to see me. Although, beware, they are more interested in you dropping popcorn (they have free popcorn) than they are actually interested in you.

This place is great. They are conveniently located near my house and have a nice selection of beers. You can either get your growler filled or you can get a taster tray or just kick back and enjoy a pint. They have a TV where they show local sports games. You can also order tacos from the restaurant next door to enjoy while you drink your beer. The downside of this place is that they seem to have cut their hours. They used to be open much longer so you could enjoy some beer after work but now they are closed around 6.

This place is THE growler shop. 32 beers on tap. Great staff. Very dog friendly. And with tacos, Indian and Thai next door that you can bring in whats not to love. Oh thats right 2 dollar pint Tuesdays. If you havent been you dont know how good growler shops can be.

Review №24

Funky little place. One of your standard growler places these days with a massive beer selection. The locals like to hang out here and bring their dogs down. Theres a TV to catch the sports and the staff are friendly. Couple of picnic tables outside. Theres free popcorn, but otherwise no eats - other than a Thai and a Indian in the same complex.

This is a great spot for you and your dog (or pot-belly pig as the case may have it)! This is a great place to grab a pint of nearly any variety your heart desires and support a local restaurant nearby by ordering food and eating at NW Growlers. NOTE: Because NW Growlers does not produce food, they *do* allow pets inside. Greg always provides great service and insight into the different beers on tap!

Part of me wants to keep this gem a secret. Its in the middle of a strip mall off of Macadam. It is next to a liquor store. Go inside and feel like youre in beaverton (yuck)-- it has a strip mall, ultra-modern flavor to the decor. So un-Portland. However, thats where my criticism ceases. 20 or so taps with live updates as to what youre drinking on computer screens ala Baileys taproom. Unlike Baileys, its not crowded all to hell. Unlike Baileys, I felt completely comfy asking for a few tastes, as the vibe was very laid back. And at the end, I ended up with a growler full of very nice cider that Ive never heard of. They also had a gluten free beer on tap that was high quality as well. Not to mention that the young lady serving us was as friendly and helpful as can be. Lastly, a complete value as far as pricing goes. Extremely reasonable.
