NW Growlers — Restaurant in Portland

Part of me wants to keep this gem a secret. It's in the middle of a strip mall off of Macadam. It is next to a liquor store. Go inside and feel like you're in beaverton (yuck)-- it has a strip mall, ultra-modern flavor to the decor. So un-Portland.

Large beer and cider selection, something for everyone. Wish the beer was a little colder, still 5...
