Locals say

Our favorite taproom in the city

"Best IPA in Portland and a patio I'd happily live on. Heron's been our Friday spot for three years."

Kavi P.

Local since 2019

"The wood-fired pizza is genuinely as good as the beer — which is a high bar."

Amira S.

Eater Portland reviewer

"Took my dad on his 70th birthday. The brewer came out and walked him through the cask. He still talks about it."
