Books, cold beers, and a night time parade – not a bad way to spend a scorching weekend.
Saturday
Kölsch Fest
Kölsch Fest is back!
This year we are letting the perfect summer bier, Kölsch, take over the pub completely. We will be serving five different brands on draft in traditional .2L Stange from Früh, Zunft, Reissdorf, Sünner, and Freigeist.
We will have food specials inspired by the annual Carnival in Köln. This is a completely unique event, that you don’t want to miss!

3 Tokens = 3 Pints or Food Items
The Starlight Parade
One of our most popular events, the Portland General Electric/SOLVE Starlight Parade offers funky, eclectic fun for everyone. From traditional marching bands and flood-lit floats, to glow-in-the-dark umbrellas and unique hand-built entries, you’ll see the best of Portland’s diverse community groups (and surrounding Northwest region) together in one whimsical pageant. 2016 makes for an exciting milestone, as the Starlight Parade celebrates 40 years in the city of Portland!
