We are Maine’s first Resto-Brewery & Distillery located on Portland’s waterfront in the Old Port since 2013.
Why the name “Liquid Riot?”
We were deeply inspired by the strength and spirit of our American forebears who in 1855 fought for their right to drink what and when they wanted in Chicago’s Lager Beer Riot and Portland’s own Rum Riot. At our core, we believe first and foremost that everyone has a right to drink what they so choose and that everyone is welcome through our doors.
We put all the passion and energy of past riots into our own liquids; bottled, canned or on tap, made locally for your enjoyment.

9/30/23 - Very nice spot. Loved the scenery and atmosphere. I was there just to hang but my Fiancé did get a beer. We played the shuffle board for a bit then went outside. The patio area has a nice port view & heat lamps.

This is a must visit! They have a large selection of beers and house made liquor cocktails that will please everyone. Their food menu is amazing. Sit outside and enjoy the beautiful views. And order the house made pretzel. It’s the best I’ve ever had!

Great stop for craft beer and lunch while shopping. Lobster Roll with brown butter was tasty and the fish tacos were a great meal too. Nitro Ichigo Cream (Strawberry Cream Ale) was a smooth, great tasting well-built beer. Primus was also good, nice and light with a solid flavor profile. Bartenders were attentive. Fantastic interior decor and outdoor seating is available too. We would definitely go back.

Come here if you want good views, good vibes, and good drinks. This was my third time coming here, but my first time sitting outside. I really enjoyed the ambiance of sitting on the ocean, which paired well with the fun and unique drinks we got.We also had speedy service (love Mariah), the place was very clean, and it is all at a reasonable price.

Great experience.We went about 1 on Wednesday. There was no wait. We ordered the pretzels and a flight of whiskey. Service was excellent and made fantastic reservations!!!I really loved the Oat Whiskey. It's only brewed once a year according to our server. My next favorite was the bourbon.Make sure to check out the gorgeous space that overlooks the wharf!

Came randomly to check this place out on the walk. We walked in without expectation and found nick! What a treat though! The merch, hospitality, and drink were bar setting for anyone in the area! Whether it was Nick or the selections, I can not discern until I return. However, nick will be to blame for us finding out the answer! 😇

What a fantastic place! Beer and Pretzels with Beer Cheese. Glad I got there when Oktoberfest was going on. Sit in the back outside area. You get a great view of the harbor.

Amazing location right on the water with a very open beer hall atmosphere. The beer and drink selection is great. They had a food menu which the only thing I tried was the pretzel but it was delicious. I am sure it can get very packed on certain times and days/nights luckily for the group I was with there were plenty of tables available. I would highly recommend Liquid Riot to anyone in the area that is looking to try some very good beer that they have. You can buy packaged goods to leave which is all made by them I believe. Good variety so I am certain everyone who visits will find something they enjoy. 100% will return next time I can get the chance.

Amazing brewery experience.Was drawn in by the focus on good brewery food (and not just the average "food truck on site") and was beyond impressed by the quality and creativity of the food. Everything was delicious.Service was attentive, but most importantly friendly. Prices were reasonable, and the atmosphere and ambiance was exceptional.Finding parking was a little annoying - it doesn't seem like they have any of their own parking spaces, even right against their building, so if you're not familiar with the area you might have to drive around.

This cool bar/brewery/distillery is a must stop at if you enjoy trying the local flavors. The service is fantastic and the cocktails made from the house spirits are even better. If you like gin style drinks don't forget to ask for the "Unforgettable " which is no longer on the menu, but the bartenders would love to make it for you. This place has a great vibe and is a fun place to spend a few hours at. Thanks to Kelly and Nick for being so fun!!
