Novare Res Bier Café

I've been to a shit ton of craft. Eer establishments over the past couple of decades, and I honestly think this place is the best of the bunch. Eclectic tap list, and an even more expansive bottle selection. Mostly geared toward European styles; I don't even believe they have a hazy IPA or pastry stout. Limited, thoughtful food menu with build your own cheese and charcuterie boards. The decor is cozy and underground, but there is also an above ground terrace that I imagine is nice in the summer. I haven't posted in a long time, and this place moved me to the point where I logged in to review it.

Visited on a Sunday before Memorial Day, one of the few places still open. Inside is quiet, patio is packed. Good selection of Belgian taps intermingled with local craft. Great service. Very laid back vibe. Food available.

Nice outdoor seating area in a remarkably quiet corner of downtown Portland. Beer selection is absolutely world class. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Certainly worth a visit.

Medium size place, pub decour; eclectic tap list, good wifi, no flights, but half pours available, small food menu available

Seemingly underground bar in Old Port that has a great selection of local, out of state and foreign beer. Service is pretty good and that beer is priced decently. A must-stop in Portland.

Super cool place. We did not eat here. Great beer selection. Friendly staff. Nice eclectic selection. Got some bissell.

Monday Afternoon for one beer with John, Anne and Patty when they 1st opened. Great service from friendly bartender. Nice cool relaxing place. Interesting to find being off teh main street. We had a good Bissell beer in Bissell glassware. Good time.

Among the best beer bars out there. The staff were very friendly, the beers were clearly cared for. Nice glassware, great tap list and massive bottle list. If I lived in Portland ME, this is where I'd hang out.
