The Lucky Labrador Brew Pub (915 SE Hawthorne Blvd) is located in an old roofing and sheetmetal warehouse. With high wood trussed ceilings, the Lab's warm rustic ambiance is a great place for a neighborhood pub. Founded in October, 1994, the Lab produces some of the tastiest brews in the northwest and serves up some simple, yet excellent, pub fare. Outside on the back covered patio is a great place to relax and converse with friends or hang out with your canine. We are proud to be a casual brew pub where people can enjoy quality products in an unpretentious atmosphere.

11 different bus routes within 5 blocks. PM me for help w/ Trimet if you need it.

8. well that's too bad

I looked forward to meeting you! Well, that means I have probably no reason to bring my 40 Fall cds along...

[Viva_La_Revolution]

9. When I do get to meet you...

I'm gonna give you the cold shoulder for ditching us. Hmmph.

It will go incredibly well, and we will do it again, next month. You can make it up to us then.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

[Tom Kitten]

[Viva_La_Revolution]

Ok, I'll make up a table sign, and I'll try to get an outside table, ya?


See you there ;-)

[wakemeupwhenitsover]

12. boo hoo.

It doesn't look like I'll be able to go. DH & I are going to the coast or he's going w/buddies & I have to take care of our dog. It will be too hot to leave him in the car & dear doggie does not play well with others.

I'll try, especially if I don't go to the coast and the weather breaks.

best & have a great time all!

[Trajan]

13. I will DEFINITELY be there ! ....

I dont think it will be difficult to find ya's:

You'll be the one's throwing pretzels at the presidential portrait ....

NICE !

7pm ...

Saturday, August 6th ...

Barring any unforseen calamity ... I will be there ....

See ya's then ...

14. Just got back from vacation, I'm in

Wow, this is my first post in almost two weeks.

Looking forward to seeing you all.

[potone]

15. Excellent!

I will make every attempt to be there.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

17. (sniff) The Lucky Lab--this is getting me all nostalgic,

especially with the talk of all the bus lines within walking distance. :cry:

But seriously, folks, I hope this is a great opportunity for creating an active PDX offline community as wonderful as the Twin Cities DU community!

[Viva_La_Revolution]

18. thanks for the wishes!

It's my statergy! when the internet crashes during the end times... we will have an offline survival support group to run to! :hide:

:rofl:

[Dervill Crow]

19. Okay, next month I'll be there for sure.

Right now it's questionable I'll be able to escape from my house tonight.

[potone]

20. I really wanted to go tonight, but I couldn't.

I had work that I had to do. I hope your meet-up went well, and that this will become a regular event. I really look forward to meeting all of you, and having a political support group!

22. I just woke up .....

Twas awesome ....

Nine of us made it, and really had a wonderful time ....

It is a great feeling to share hops-based beverages with passionate people of like-minds ...

The Lucky Lab was a GREAT choice ! (says the Portland-newbie with 30 days senority) .... it had the perfect ambience for us .... I loved it ... The brews were sensational ... We drank mostly the Organic Golden Ale or Dog Day India Pale Ale ... both were extremely delicious ....
