Distillery Row got a nice shout out in the Seattle Weekly “Voracious” Blog as one of the 10 Reasons Seattle Should Be Jealous of Portland! From the article:
Put down the torches. Please, don’t round up a mob to run me out of town. I heart Seattle, big time. But . . . Every trip to the lovely Rose City makes me pine: Why don’t we have this, that, or the other in our fair city? I’m not even including Powell’s, the Trailblazers, or the whole no-sales-tax thing because those are so damn obvious. No, this lineup of stuff that makes me pea-green with envy is purely food-centric.

Speaking of drinking, I have a big crush on the area of the city known as Distillery Row. Wander from New Deal to Aviation, sip and learn. The welcome arrival of a couple new taprooms–Hair of the Dog and Cascade Barrel House–in the ‘hood make this the perfect shot-and-a-beer kind of destination.
