Mt. Hood Brewing Co.'s Rainbow Tavern in Maupin, Oregon, is a place where water from a glacier does more than melt snow – it makes beer that tastes like a cool breeze on a crisp morning. The brewery draws its liquid gold from Mt. Hood’s glacial reservoirs, giving each ale a sharp clarity that could cut glass. With outposts in Government Camp, Portland and the Maupin site, you can chase the same water‑born flavour across the state while enjoying very different backdrops.
The menu is a no‑nonsense celebration of pub classics: wood‑fire pizzas that char just enough to whisper smoky notes, cheese curds so generous you could build a small fort, and fries seasoned like a steak‑fry, which have apparently stolen the spotlight from the brews themselves. Service is fast, friendly and impressively knowledgeable – you’ll leave feeling like you’ve been given a masterclass in hops and barley without the pretentious lecture.
The ambience mixes retro décor with a relaxed vibe, perfect for swapping stories over a custom‑crafted pint that proudly proclaims its local tradition and daring innovation (the sort of authenticity that even the most sceptical drinker can’t help but respect).
Reviewers praised Mt. Hood Brewing Co.'s Rainbow Tavern for its good food, including burgers, chicken tenders, cheese curds, and particularly addictive fries with a perfect balance of crunch and chewiness, alongside a welcoming atmosphere and friendly service.
