About Gigantic Brewing - Brewery & Taproom

From Gigantic Brewing's own website and its Google listing, read September 30, 2026.

Gigantic Brewing's original taproom sits on SE 26th Avenue in Portland, and it is strictly for adults. Its website says everyone must be 21 or older with valid ID, babies included. The brewery's other Portland taproom, the Robot Room on NE Glisan, allows minors.

Brewmaster Ben Love put years of dreaming into starting Gigantic. His bio says he was the first employee and head brewer at Hopworks Urban Brewery in Portland. The beer pages list Gigantic IPA, Ginormous Imperial IPA, Kölschtastic, Sassy Pony and LP Stout, plus seasonal and barrel aged beers.

Google describes the place as an unassuming hangout that serves house-brewed beer and a few guest ales. There is indoor and outdoor seating, including an indoor area called the Barrel Room. Beer on tap, cans, cases and sixth barrels are sold to go.

Dogs are welcome on the front patio only, and they must be on a leash. They are not allowed inside or on the south patio. The taproom has no kitchen, so you can bring a picnic or order a pizza.
