Great Notion Brewing in Portland, Oregon has announced its second location in Portland.

The second location will serve as a taproom, restaurant and coffee shop. 

“We are very psyched to open a fun-filled brewpub in the industrial part of Northwest Portland,” said Great Notion co-founder Paul Reiter in a press release. “When we first opened the production brewery here, there was hardly anywhere to go to eat, drink or get a good cup of coffee. That led us to the idea of opening a morning coffee shop and adding some fun twists on our beers, like the Double Stack Beer Milkshake!”

The week-long grand opening celebration will feature special releases from well-known breweries such as Monkish, Bottle Logic, Trillium, Other Half, Highland Park, Cellarmaker, J. Wakefield, Kane Brewing and more.
