Brewery Profile

Away Days Brewing Co

In Portland’s crowded craft beer landscape, Away Days Brewing Co gives visitors a taproom built around a clear set of beer traditions rather than a single flagship idea. Operating at 1516 Southeast 10th Avenue, it focuses on English ales, European-style lagers, rotating cask ales, and West Coast IPAs. A first-time visitor should expect the beer list to reflect both older European approaches and the regional influence of the Pacific Northwest, especially through hop-forward IPA options. The brewery also has a social calendar tied to soccer, with viewing parties for Premier League matches as well as Portland Timbers and Thorns games, so the room may feel different depending on whether the visit falls on a match day or a quieter afternoon.

Travelers coming through Portland often seek out breweries that show how local craft beer overlaps with broader traditions. Away Days fits that route by offering styles that may appeal to visitors looking beyond the standard IPA flight, while still keeping West Coast IPAs in the mix. The cask-ale program is a useful reason to check in before or during a trip, since rotating cask releases can make one visit different from the next. For visitors interested in beer culture as much as beer styles, the soccer screenings add another reason to stop by, especially for those who follow English football or Portland’s local clubs. The brewery’s English and European leanings make it a distinct stop among Portland taprooms without separating it from the city’s wider craft beer habits.

Practical planning should start with the taproom itself, since it is the place to confirm the day’s pours and whether a cask release or match viewing is scheduled. The brewery is based in Southeast Portland, an area many beer travelers already include in taproom-focused itineraries. Away Days also hosts a weekly run club on Thursday evenings, which may be relevant for visitors who like pairing travel with informal group activities. Merchandise is available through the brewery’s online store, including taproom-exclusive items as noted by the brewery, but beer availability, event timing, and the current cask selection should be treated as day-to-day details. For a visitor profile, the main draw is straightforward: traditional English and European beer references, local Portland beer context, and a taproom calendar that connects beer with soccer and community events.
