Craft Beer Brought to City Residents Like Fresh Milk by Old Town Brewing Company

Old Town Brewing Company announced its craft beers will soon be delivered via pedal power.  The City of Portland has been named by many publications as the beer and biking capital of America. Now Old Town Brewing Company will offer the two together for the first time.

Old Town Brewing Company was recently launched by its sister company, Old Town Pizza. The famous Portland Pizzeria has already been delivering pizza throughout the city by bike for nearly eight years.

“Portland has already shown a passion for beer and biking. We’re excited to bring the spirit of Portland to local residents, businesses, and hotel guests,” said owner Adam Milne.

Available for delivery will be the brewery’s Pale Ale, IPA, Stout, Irish Red, Winter Ale, Porter, and Pilsner along with Old Town’s well-known pies.

Established in 1974 with the opening of its original landmark location in Old Town’s Merchant Hotel building, Old Town Pizza is a Portland legend known for its incredible pizza, cozy atmosphere and bustling happy hours. With two locations and a new brewery, Old Town Brewing Company, the Portland Business has garnered attention from shows like Rachael Ray’s Tasty Travels, The Tonight Show, and The Travel Channel. “An icon, a must, something to check off your To Experience Before You Die list”, says Portland Picks.

Honored to have been chosen: At the end of last year, local band Pink Martini released their  latest album – 1969 – with Japanese singer Saori Yuki.  It was an immediate smash hit reaching number one in the US and many other countries.  To celebrate the success, Saori Yuki was invited to Portland to sing with Pink Martini at their concert at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall.  Saori Yuki is widely considered to be Japan’s Barbra Streisand and a special pre-concert reception was arranged for her, hosted at the residence of the Japanese Consul General, and Chef Naoko Catering was selected to cater the event.  Naoko was so honored to be chosen to cater for such a high profile event, and to be involved in preparations for the Pink Martini concert, which she also attended.  It was fantastic!
