Such a cool place. Right downtown. Big windows, clean, bright, and well-constructed. Nice-looking bar hits you in the face. Hang back at your table and order from the list if you like. Our visit gave the distinct impression that once the downtown worker crowd heads home, you practically have the place to yourself. Awesome variety of strong, new, rare, interesting, and locally-of-note beers on draft. Lots of big, delicious beers built for again in bottles--only a few dozen, but no bottle space spent on session beers so somehow it seems very efficient and well-considered. AWESOME prices. Definitely be back.

2010-06. Visited late on a Friday night last June, it’s a relatively small space but has a good tap list and bottle selection, and good (if loud) music playing. We only stayed for a couple as it was late but they were enjoyable. Service was friendly and knowledgeable. Would return if in the vicinity again.

Very light space. More like a coffee shop than a bar, really. I went for the anniversary party at the tap list was killer, including a special sour blend from Cascade. These people clearly love beer and know how to do it very well. Definitely would like to go back.

Smelled like puke. Literally. As if someone had recently barfed on the floor. While other bars were packed, Bailey’s had about 7 people inside, all of whom seemed oblivious to the stench. IWe walked in and walked out.

This place is pretty good. I can’t remember how taps they have, but they have close to 20. Oh, wait, the description, says "21", so I was close. Anyways, the clientele were made up of business folks, such as myself, and a few yuppie locals. Nothing really surprising there, but the crowd was nice. The bartender was really nice, and prompt. The prices are fair. I wouldn’t say that this was an amazing experience, but honestly, nothing was really bad about this place. Seems to get a bit crowded after working hours, but if you arrive just before then, you’ll easily find a seat. The place isn’t very big, but the high ceilings help mitigate the sense of smallness. Overall, great place to visit, and a low-key chill place that’s great to grab a few beers after work, or whenever you fucking feel like it. Cheers, folks.

There are so many good beer bars in Portland, one would have to play eeny-meeny-miny-mo to pick one as "the best." Nevertheless, Bailey’s Taproom is a must. They open in the late afternoon, so you can hit them after a day of putting around. Their beer selection is not large, but they feature only tip-top craft brews with an emphasis on local beers. You can do a "cafeteria" flight to sample several different beers, which I strongly recommend. They have a lot of great beers in bottles so you can take some home - and maybe get an extra bottle to trade or give as a gift. The server I had was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable without being overly friendly, and he helped me immensely in finding beers I would like. If ever I am in Portland again, I will visit this place at least once!

A sort of odd mix of a modern dance club feel and yet board games, chess. A cool electronic board listing the 21 rotating taps. Bottles as well, maybe 50. Great service. Very knowledgeable staff. In a cool location. The Santeria Mexican place next door is awesome.

This is a must visit while touring the Portland craftbeer scene. I love the electronic beer signs...especially when they show details like when tapped and how much left. I suppose this will be "old hat" in a year or two...but still enjoying it. Nice setup...great staff. The best part though is the selection...especially of local and greater Oregon beers. If you don’t have time to hit a lot of Oregon establishments...come here and taste a large representation in one spot.

Great place with 20 great taps. Went there after a Belgian Beer Fest tapping. Very reasonable prices and good service. Crowded, but with a pleasant ambience.

Small little place across the street from Tugboat brewing. Excellent tap list. They don’t serve food, and you order everything at the bar, but a great laid back and relaxed atmosphere. It’s hard to go wrong with having about 20 taps that constantly rotate.
